Multiple GRAMMY® Award Nominee And Phenomenal Vocalist

Jazzmeia Horn

Embarks On European Tour In Support Of Her New Album

US jazz luminary, vocalist and composer Jazzmeia Horn will embark on a Spring / Summer tour of Europe, in support of her widely-celebrated new album Messages. A winner of the Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Competition and the Thelonious Monk Institute International Jazz Competition, Jazzmeia Horn is also a NAACP Image Award winning artist. Having signed to Concord Records, her debut album ‘A Social Call’ achieved great critical acclaim, receiving a GRAMMY® Award nomination in the category of Best Jazz Vocal Album. Jazzmeia’s second album ‘Love and Liberation’, received yet another GRAMMY® nomination in the same category and her pioneering big band album ‘Dear Love’ was nominated for ‘Best Large Jazz Ensemble Album’ a year later. Now Jazzmeia returns with ‘Messages’: an album that eschews the personnel of a big band, but retains the avant-playfullness of the Sun Ra Arkestra. Ruminations on family, friendship and love all circulate among the 10 original compositions on the album.

In part, Messages is intended to be a word of encouragement to anyone making tough choices — a reminder that we all make sacrifices. Sometimes, the difficulties encountered along the way are worth it, though. Horn’s among the vanguard in jazz, using her knowledge of the canon to inform decisions firmly rooted in traditional parts of the genre, while still adding in contemporary ideas, themes and music. The 21st century comes to bear on the album through the singer splicing in voice recordings and voicemails - literal messages - into a few songs. A rare chance to experience this exceptional music through Jazzmeia’s breathtaking live performance is coming your way, don’t miss your chance to experience something truly special.








“If nomenclature is destiny, Jazzmeia Horn was indeed born to swing. Maturing in what is proving to be a renaissance period for female jazz singers, Horn—who has won in both the Thelonious Monk and Sarah Vaughan vocal-jazz competitions—holds her own as an assured and spunky interpreter of song.” The New Yorker

"... the next big carrier of straight-ahead jazz’s vocal tradition.” - The New York Times

“For Horn, expressing her truth is a crucial aspect of her artistry...” Jazziz

"An extremely bold album, with its fusion of big-band jazz, spoken-word poetry and elastic singing."- The Dallas Morning News

"It’s rare that singers of Horn’s caliber can write as well as they sing but Horn does just that.” The New York City Jazz Record

“Jazzmeia Horn breaks free of the constraints of vocal jazz" Black Grooves

“in a class by herself…America’s most exciting new hope in jazz vocals, someone who is both bandleader and vocalist and so much more. Deliverance is here.” Bentley’s Bandstand
