Singer, composer, storyteller and visual artist Cécile McLorin Salvant is a unique voice. “She radiates authority and delivers a set with almost a dramatic arc.” (New York Times) Though rooted in jazz, Salvant delivers hidden gems that that span vaudeville, blues, global folk traditions, theater, jazz, and baroque. Salvant is an eclectic curator, unearthing rarely recorded, forgotten songs with strong narratives, interesting power dynamics, unexpected twists, and humor. She has won three Grammy Awards for Best Jazz Vocal Album and has been nominated for three more. In 2020, Salvant received a MacArthur Fellowship and a Doris Duke Artist Award.
