New York City (The Peter Malick Group album)

New York City is an album by the Peter Malick Group featuring Norah Jones. It was recorded during August and September 2000, a few weeks before Jones made her own demos for Blue Note Records, and released three years later. Jones performs vocals on all seven tracks, and this album is more bluesy than Jones' debut album, Come Away with Me. One of the tracks of the album, "Strange Transmissions", was bundled with the Nokia 6230 mobile phone.

The album reached number 54 on the Billboard 200, number one on the Top Blues Albums chart, and number two on the Top Independent Albums chart. The Bastone & Burnz remix of "Strange Transmissions" peaked at number 23 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in June 2004.

The cover version of Bob Dylan's "Heart of Mine" was featured in the 2003 film Runaway Jury, being used in the closing credits.
