Nnenna Freelon

"Very hip music."--Aretha Franklin Grammy nominated jazz vocalist Nnenna Freelon's remarkable range and dynamics thrill when she cuts loose in concert. Her stirring, soulful take on jazz and pop standards demonstrates her innovative approach while also placing her well within the time-honored tradition set forth by talents such as Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, and Shirley Horn. Describing Soulcall, her latest album, she says, "I wanted to create a record that paid homage to the spiritual power of music regardless of the genre...I wanted to sing these songs from the inside out."
