Benin-born and Brooklyn-based, this four-time Grammy nominee sends her electrifying voice dipping and soaring through jazz, funk, salsa, reggae, rumba, souk, and makossa. “Expressive, exquisitely nuanced…file it under superb” (The Times, London). Her new CD, available at Starbucks, features Alicia Keys, Carlos Santana, Peter Gabriel, and Ziggy Marley. This world music start is currently touring major venues with Josh Groban. Don’t miss your chance to hear her in the warm and intimate setting of the Music Center at Strathmore.
