In this Women Who Rock clip, Aussie pop singer-songwriter and Gotye collaborator Kimbra talks about finding inspiration from St. Vincent, tUnE-yArDs, Nina Simone, Ella Fitzgerald and more.

"I just love the color in the voices of a lot of jazz singers. It's got that kind of vintage feel, which I guess everyone's running back to right now, in terms of production style and aesthetics," says Kimbra. "There're just so many!"

Kimbra's debut album, Vows, was released in the U.S. in May.
