About Me
Hall of Fame Inductee, and multiple award winning jazzy singer, songwriter, visual artist and producer Yola Nash
continues being an unstoppable force when it comes to her musical passion.?
The multitalented Polish-born artist known for her signature seductive sound offers her 3rd album as a
leader entitled MANHATTAN WHISPERS. The sensual, dazzling album has already received multiple
prestigious awards, and rave critic’s reviews.
She co-produced the project with Grammy-winning producers/musicians Edsel Gomez and Lonnie Park.
She is blending and blurring the lines between Jazz, Pop, Latin, Eastern European Folk, and Parisian
avant-garde texture on accordion harmonics, creating a personal musical style that is irresistible. Just
recently The Academy defined this style as a new genre called Alternative Jazz.
She delivers to her world-wide?audiences an optimistic artful work that celebrates life and love in a
worldly fashion, so timely and needed to give our minds escape from these troubled sociopolitical
times.
In addition to her recordings, the multimedia artist’s career highlights are very compelling. She sang for
Pope John Paul II, performed and recorded with Grammy winning legend Wynton Marsalis and the Jazz
at Lincoln Center Orchestra, performed multiple times at world-famous NY Fashion Weeks, and in France during
the Cannes Film Festival?at the prestigious GSF Awards.
Yola Nash has come a long way to NYC, faced and triumphed over tremendous adversities, and lived to
sing about it to inspire others to never ever give up on their big dreams.
