Powerhouse jazz vocalist Nicole Henry returns to celebrate the release of her new CD, Time to Love Again, an eclectic mix of jazz standards and reimagined pop tunes that showcases Henry’s soulful interpretations. Whether burning through a swing tune or gently crooning a ballad, Henry truly makes each song uniquely her own and is often favorably compared to Whitney Houston and Natalie Cole for her dynamic range, impeccable phrasing, and bluesy gospel style. Stephen Holden of The New York Times raved, “I had the sense of being in the presence of a pop-soul superwoman whose every gesture and inflection conveyed confidence and mastery.” Broadway World says, “So powerful is her charisma, so unique is her personality, so rich is her music, so abandoned is her joy that you can't watch her without being drawn in.”

Among her numerous accolades, Henry received the Soul Train Award for “Best Traditional Jazz Performance," “Best New Jazz Artist” by HMV Japan, and “Best Solo Musician” by the Miami New Times. Several of Henry’s albums have charted on Billboard’s and HMV Japan’s Top 10. Time to Love Again is Henry’s 8th CD and first full-length studio recording in 10 years (not counting a live CD, an EP and two singles). It’s also the first album with her long-time quartet of collaborators who have continued shaping her “sound" since 2010. The familiarity and comfort of the players are a mainstay throughout the project, as is the craftsmanship.
