    On the recently launched Special K ad, I saw very taken by the voice of the female songstress singing "Sing a Rainbow".
    Anybody know who she is and of any of her other work?

    A Rainbow originally featured in the 1955 film Pete Kelly’s Blues, where it was sung by Peggy Lee in her Oscar-nominated role as alcoholic jazz singer Rose Hopkins. The song became a chart hit in the UK in 1966 after being recorded by Cilla Black

    Thanks for the response, but I don't think the girl singing in the current jingle is
    Peggy Lee.
    She has an interesting little warble in her voice that sort of reminds me of Iris Dement ...but it isn't her either.
    At least I don't think it is?
    I'll ring Kellogs publicity dept. in the morning and they might be able to help.
