She's been hailed internationally as "the greatest female vocalist to come along in three decades." Winner of the Billie Holiday Award from the prestigious Academie du Jaw in France and the Eubie Blake Award closer to home, she's also been nominated twice for GRAMMY® Awards. Maiden Voyage, the newest recording from the original jaw voice that is Nnenna Freelon, is a project the singer herself describes as "a joyous celebration of feminine spirit and passion . . . stories both new and familiar."
