Brunch: Lauren Henderson

Blue Note New York is now open for brunch packages with incidental live music.

Appearing on Our Stage: LAUREN HENDERSON

Described as "somewhere between a comforting whisper and a cogent declaration" by  The New York Times, Lauren Henderson's music resonates with listeners around the world.  Recently featured in the  Financial Times, breaking the Jazz Charts - Top 5, and the Year End Jazz Week Top 100 for 2018 and 2019, Henderson's eclectic vocal influences spread across genres producing a distinct yet versatile sound. Her original music is featured in The Drowning, starring Julia Stiles, Avan Jogia, and Josh Charles, as well as El Juego de Las Llaves, starring Ela Velden, Maite Perroni, and Marimar Vega. 

Henderson uncovers the layers of her diverse background in English and Spanish.  Her compositions paint stories reflecting journeys imposed through the African Diaspora in connection to Henderson's Panamanian, Montserratian, and vast Caribbean roots as they interplay with her North American upbringing.  Jazz, Latin jazz, flamenco, folk and soul roots aid in an exploration of culture, society, race relations and the complexities encountered as we navigate life's obstacles.  Embarking on her 10th world tour, Henderson has performed in France, Italy, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Poland, Norway, Russia, Mexico and South Africa, living up to her growing reputation as a "vibrant new star singer" - Downbeat Magazine.
