Nicole Henry at Iridium

On Friday, January 19, 2007, vocalist Nicole Henry will perform at Iridium Jazz Club, NYC presenting songs from her upcoming CD release Almost Like Being in Love. A most beautiful songstress, Nicole carries the torch as the new, young female voice broadening the scope of traditional jazz songs-- infusing soul, and injecting charisma, passion and heartfelt "joie de vivre."

Her debut CD release The Nearness of You earned high reviews from Billboard, Jazz Times, Cadence Magazine, All About Jazz, L.A. Jazz Scene and many more. They lauded Nicole as a beautiful, distinctive, potent vocal thespian who could deliver a power ballad like Whitney, Patti and Diana, and who could swing with controlled abandon, interpreting a song, making it her own. Henry definitely has "a significant voice to be discovered." When the country of Japan 'discovered' Nicole, they awarded her the "Best New Jazz Artist" in 2004. Subsequently, her second CD release, Teach Me Tonight released in Asia, got voted "Best Vocal Jazz Album of 2005" in Japan. Now with this third release, Nicole gives international listeners even more artistic spirit to embrace. She soulfully swings, powerfully soars and touches the core of her listeners. This impeccably produced and arranged studio CD adds light for Nicole to shine brighter, and reach even more fans.
