| NICOLE HENRY: Acoustic & Intimate at Triad Theater – Mar 18 Nicole Henry makes her debut at the Triad Theater with a special intimate performance. The Soul Train Award-winning vocalist performs a guitar/vocal acoustic set featuring songs from her 2015 release, Summer Sessions and material that has not been performed live before. She has established herself as one of the jazz world's most acclaimed vocalists and her passionate and soulful voice has earned her three Top-10 U.S.Billboard and HMV Japan jazz albums. Heralded by The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, The Japan Times, El Pais, Jazz Times, Essence and more, Ms. Henry tells real stories through repertoire from the American Songbook, classic and contemporary jazz, blues and originals. "Listen and you'll hear an artist who knows how to make a song her own just as surely as she knows how to make a tune swing." – Billboard "I had the sense of being in the presence of a pop-soul superwoman whose every gesture and inflection conveyed confidence and mastery…. time and again she invested familiar songs with an extra fillip of conviction and made you reconsider the words." - Stephen Holden, The New York Times write your comments about the article :: © 2018 Jazz News :: home page |
