Born in New Orleans and raised in Oakland, CA, singer/songwriter Ledisi has wowed fans with her unparalleled vocals ever since she burst onto the scene twenty years ago. She has truly earned a place in the pantheon of the greatest singers of her generation. Ledisi is a favorite of The Obamas and a long list of icons including the late-Prince, Patti LaBelle, Smokey Robinson, Stevie Wonder, Chaka Khan and so many more.

The world knows Ledisi as an R&B star who earned a dozen GRAMMY Award nominations before taking home her first trophy in 2021 for her song “Anything For You.” But Bay Area audiences first got to know the New Orleans native during her formative years in Oakland when she was stretching her wings as an ostentatiously gifted jazz singer. For this exclusive night, she returns to SFJAZZ with her sparkling tribute to the High Priestess of Soul, Nina Simone, backed by a full orchestra — a salute captured on her GRAMMY-nominated 2021 Listen Back album Ledisi Sings Nina, recorded in collaboration with the Metropole Orkest, and broadcast as a special on PBS.
