Lady Nade Sings Nina Simone

About this event

“There is no mistaking the tender, powerful, velveteen vocals of Lady Nade.” Folk Radio

Renowned for her distinctive and award-winning vocal prowess, Lady Nade possesses one of the most singular voices in the UK music scene.  Critics and fans alike have often drawn comparisons between Lady Nade’s voice and the legendary Nina Simone. 

Nina Simone, an icon and consummate musical storyteller of the 20th century, left behind a legacy of liberation, empowerment, passion and love through her extraordinary body of work. By the end of her life, she had garnered an unprecedented level of recognition.

As a black woman, Lady Nade acknowledges Nina Simone’s trailblazing role in paving the way for artists of her generation. Simone’s tenacity encouraged them not to abandon their dreams and aspirations.

Lady Nade is honoured to celebrate Nina Simone’s life and enduring legacy alongside some of the UK’s most accomplished musicians. This high-energy performance is a heartfelt dedication to recreating the transformative sound that blended popular tunes of the era into a distinctive fusion of jazz, blues, gospel, and folk music.
