Ledisi, the New Orleans-born and Oakland-raised singer, pays tribute to the legendary Nina Simone with the album Ledisi Sings Nina. Featuring seven songs of social and personal import drawn from Simone's celebrated songbook, Ledisi Sings Nina is a finely crafted, arrangement-driven collection recorded in Holland, Los Angeles, London, and New Orleans - before and after the pandemic began. It balances upbeat, big-band energy with atmospheric balladry, and an attention to historic detail that succeeds in updating the music for a modern hip-hop/R&B era. With the prowess of Ledisi's voice, the messages of Simone's music - of personal empowerment and collective protest - retain a relevancy for a BLM generation facing the same harsh challenges and bitter struggles of the 1960s. The performances on Ledisi Sings Nina find the singer benefitting from top-tier support in a variety of contexts the majority of tracks feature the world-renowned Metropole Orkest conducted by Jules Buckley with arrangements by Jochen Neufer, and others. InchI'm Going Back HomeInch features the all-star New Orleans Jazz Orchestra directed by Adonis Rose. InchFour WomenInch is powered by Ledisi in the company of three vocalists of equal authority Lisa Fisher, Lizz Wright, and Alice Smith. InchWild Is The WindInch - with Spanish guitar, piano and drums - is the album's sole live recording, taken from the 2020 PBS special broadcast Ledisi Live A Tribute to Nina Simone.
