Born on the 2nd February 1985 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Gardot took up piano and played as a youngster on the nightclub scene of Philadelphia, influenced by jazz, folk, rock, and pop musics. At the age of nineteen she was a fashion student at the Community College of Philadelphia. While cycling in Philadelphia in November 2003 she was hit by a car whose driver had ignored a red traffic light. In the accident she suffered serious head and spinal injuries, and her pelvis was broken in two places. Because of these severe injuries she was confined to her hospital bed for a year. Her musical beginning was prompted by a tending physician who was concerned with her cognitive impairment as a result of head injury sustained in the accident. He believed that music would help her brain injury improve, as it has been known to show remarkable results in improving people's cognitive ability after such trauma.
Following her doctor's suggestion, Gardot made recordings bedside, while still unable to walk, and eventually released the works as an EP: Some Lessons: The Bedroom Sessions (2005). Gardot's desire to be well, combined with a bit of luck, brought her to the attention of a local radio DJ at the AAA station WXPN (known for launching the careers of artists such as Amos Lee and Norah Jones). Her cognitive powers slowly but surely became pronounced, leading to the independent recording and release of her debut CD, Worrisome Heart, which was reissued in 2007 by Verve records.
Gardot is hypersensitive to light and noise, so wears dark glasses; she also uses a cane to walk. Onstage she requires a special seating unit, and wears a Transcutaneous Electro-Nerve Stimulator, a TENS device, to assist in alleviating her neuralgic muscle pain. Though touring is difficult, she has been performing in major cities on the East Coast of the U.S. to support her recordings. In 2009, working with producer Larry Klein and arranger Vince Mendoza - both known for their work with Joni Mitchell - Gardot followed up her Verve debut with My One and Only Thrill.
In 2012, she released the album The Absence.

Lyrics:
Lovers tucked into a quiet cafe
Sat beneath a shade of red
They fall in love like falling out of bed
Half a silhouette of passer-bys
Half a glass within my hand
Drink to life as if there is no end
Maybe one day I will see you
Maybe one day I will see you soon
With love, my love
A kiss beneath the moon
River waking to the morning light
Lazy boats around the bend
Shimmers once or twice to move this pen
Beauty fades before the mirrors when
Beauty knocks upon your door
Life is leading us to something more
Maybe one day I will see you
Maybe one day I will see you soon
With love, my love
A kiss beneath the moon
Maybe one day I will see you
Maybe one day I will see you soon
With love, my love
A kiss beneath the moon
With love, my love
A kiss beneath the moon
Lovers tucked into a quiet cafe
Sat beneath a shade of red
They fall in love like falling out of bed
~Melody Gardot took note of the sad fact that musicians around the world are out of work due to the COVID-19 pandemic. She put out a call on social networks for musicians to join her on a new project titled “From Paris with Love” and received hundreds of online submissions, which she reviewed with her creative team of producer Larry Klein, conductor/arranger/composer Vince Mendoza, and engineers Al Schmitt and Steve Genewick. Now the final piece is ready, accompanied by a video that features selected musicians performing from their homes, along with a global montage of people who sent Gardot video portraits of themselves with messages of love. ❤️From Poland with Love.
