PORTSMOUTH, N.H., Nov. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Jimmy’s Jazz & Blues Club Features World-Renowned Jazz & Soul Singer and Pianist KANDACE SPRINGS on Saturday December 23 at 7 & 9:30 P.M. Downbeat Magazine praised Springs’ last album The Women Who Raised Me (2020) stating, “…her fluid pianism and emotive vocals soar in this setting.”

“Citing Nina Simone as her inspiration, [Kandace] Springs evinces a similarly powerful beauty…” states JAZZ TIMES.

“[Kandace] Springs proves again to be one of today’s best voices.”
— GLIDE MAGAZINE

“Rarely in the modern era of music is one able to simply marvel at the beauty of a singer’s voice.”
— ALL ABOUT JAZZ

“Citing Nina Simone as her inspiration, Springs evinces a similarly powerful beauty…”
JAZZ TIMES

Kandace Springs‘ refined mix of Jazz, Soul, R&B, and Pop has been showcased with her albums Soul Eyes (2016), Indigo (2018), and most recently The Women Who Raised Me (2020). All the albums were released on Blue Note Records. The first two albums both landed at #2 on Billboard’s Contemporary Jazz Chart and all three have received wide critical acclaim.

The Women Who Raised Me (2020) is Kandace’s loving tribute to the great female singers who inspired her to begin her journey towards becoming one of the premier Jazz and Soul vocalists of our time. The album features her unique interpretations of songs she first heard growing up in Tennessee, ranging from such classic icons as Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald and Carmen McRae, through 60’s legends Nina Simone and Dusty Springfield, up to modern masters such as Sade and Lauryn Hill.

Even as Norah Jones, Christian McBride, David Sanborn — and players like trumpeter Avishai Cohen; flutist Elena Pinderhughes, and tenor saxophonist Chris Potter — “pop in” — The Women Who Raised Me remains unmistakably Springs’ vision. Springs says she learned much from Billie Holiday’s example — but her main takeaway is as basic as it is bone-deep: “That nothing is more important than singing from the heart.”

Here are is a song highlighting Kandace Springs’ outstanding voice:  “I Put A Spell On You” (Live Session)
