Fans won't have to walk a thousand miles to hear pop songbird Vanessa Carlton.

Or many miles at all.


The pianist will perform Saturday at DiamondJacks Casino & Resort in Bossier City.

Carlton made a name for herself at the age of 16 with her hit songs "A Thousand Miles" and "Ordinary Day." The young pianist's debut album, "Be Not Nobody," earned her three Grammy nominations for "Record of the Year," "Song of the Year" and "Best Instrumental Arrangement Accompanying Vocalist(s)."

In 2004, Carlton followed with her second release, "Harmonium." Carlton has collaborated with artists including the Counting Crows and Zucchero and opened for Stevie Nicks, who has taken the young artist under her wing.

"She's so generous," Carlton said in a news release. "She even gave me one of her famous shawls. We plan to write and produce together."

Carlton's next album is scheduled for release this spring.
