Norah Jones

Vocals / Piano

Meet the artist

A vocalist and pianist who effortlessly crosses the boundaries between jazz, country, and pop music. His debut album was a worldwide hit, bringing vocal jazz to a new generation of listeners. A soft, low voice and spacious piano bring songs close to the listener.

Lengthening a word or shifting its timing changes expression without a forceful vocal display. Jazz harmony and country familiarity coexist within acoustic textures, making genre labels unnecessary at first. Small instrumental responses reveal conversations behind the relaxed songs, offering listeners a route into jazz through music that already feels part of everyday life.

Where to start listening

Listen to the intimate voice and the understated replies from piano and guitar. Hum the tune while discovering the small sounds around it.
