The Vocal Legend that Is Nicole Henry

"Since the very First listen of this CD "The Very Thought Of You", I have yet to stop smiling from beginning to end. Nicole's command of her vocal instrument is world class. I love the Air in her voice...it brings life to the words. I love her phrasing, the attack and release of each note is perfect. Anybody who is a fan of jazz vocalists...Get this CD. It will surely be one that you will listen to for decades to come. And from Now On. When anyone speaks a sentence referring to, or comparing how great one singer is to another. They will now, and forever, have to include Nicole Henry in those references. And, You Will be dancing, in your living room, in your car or in your head, cause this band Swings. Her trios are world class and will not be topped anywhere.
But don't take my words for it. Run to your favorite retail source or "Add to Cart" service, and hear for yourself. Thank you Nicole for sharing your gift with us. God bless you and yours. And yes, the beauty shines from within.
Always,
Herbie James

"Nicole Henry has the best female voice I've heard since the 1980s triumvirate of Sade Adu, Whitney Houston and Anita Baker. If you liked those gals, buy this CD."
Incredible talent

"I saw Nicole last night at Blues Alley in DC and she blew away a full house with her incredible talent. She combines the emotional force of Anita Baker with the gentle soul of Kevyn Lettau. She performs Sinatra standards with elegant charm and covers Lennon's "Imagine" with amazing grace. You'll love this CD but see her live if you get the chance."
