Lauren Henderson
An award-winning singer, composer, and bilingual lyricist,
Henderson honors her cultural and musical heritages with her most recent release, Musa (available on all platforms) .
“Forget Me” featuring Marquis Hill, Sullivan Fortner, Eric Wheeler, and Joe Dyson was China Moses' Late Night Track of the Week on Jazz FM and album of the day on TSF JAZZ.
"Wild Is The Wind" is currently on Apple Music's 'Singer's Delight' editorial playlist!
Acclaimed vocalist-composer and lyricist Lauren Henderson returns with her most personal gesture to date. A multilingual rumination on themes of love and longing, Musa explores existing connections — and creates new relationships — among Henderson’s mingling lineages.
Toward the beginning of the pandemic, the New York artist sought to record an album braiding together traditions that influence her sound. “I wanted my next record to blend jazz, flamenco and Afro-Latinx music” says Henderson, “kind of melding all that makes me me, culturally and musical identity-wise.”
BIOGRAPHY
Described as "somewhere between a comforting whisper and a cogent declaration" by The New York Times, Lauren Henderson's music resonates with listeners around the world.
Recently featured in the Financial Times, breaking the Jazz Charts Top 5, and the Year End Jazz Week Top 50 (2020), Henderson's eclectic vocal influences spread across genres producing a distinct yet versatile sound.
Her music is featured in the Netflix hit series, Sky Rojo, The Drowning, starring Julia Stiles, Avan Jogia, and Josh Charles, El Juego de Las Llaves, starring Ela Velden, Maite Perroni, and Marimar Vega, and Romeo y Julieta starring Lupita Nyong’o and Juan Castano, scored by one of Lauren’s musical partners, Michael Thurber.
Henderson uncovers the layers of her diverse background in English and Spanish. Her compositions paint stories reflecting journeys imposed through the African Diaspora in connection to Henderson's Panamanian, Montserratian, and vast Caribbean roots as they interplay with her North American upbringing.
Jazz, Latin jazz, flamenco, R&B and soul roots aid in an exploration of culture, society, race relations and the complexities encountered as we navigate life's obstacles.
Embarking on her 10th world tour, Henderson has performed in France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Poland, Norway, Russia, Mexico, and South Africa, living up to her growing reputation as a "vibrant new star singer" - Downbeat Magazine.
