Ann Peebles

Ann Peebles is an American soul and R&B singer associated with the Memphis Hi Records sound of the late 1960s and 1970s. Her warm, emotive voice is often presented over groove-driven arrangements that blend organ, horns, and understated rhythm parts; she worked closely with producer Willie Mitchell and recorded the song "I Can't Stand the Rain." Her recordings are frequently cited as examples of Memphis soul and the early quiet storm era of R&B.
