With her sixth album “Harlem on My Mind,” Grammy Award-winning vocalist Catherine Russell journeys to the blues heart of the great African American songbook. Swinging forth with soulful interpretations, Russell taps the golden age of Harlem, as befits this vibrant daughter of jazz. Vocalists Ethel Waters, Billie Holiday, Etta James, and Dinah Washington provide her inspiration. Russell is a native New Yorker and a one-of-a-kind musician and vocalist. Russell’s voice and music have been a hit at major jazz festivals, including Montreal’s, Newport’s, and Monterey’s, and she is a genuine rare jazz and blues singer. In 2012, Russell won a Grammy Award for the “Boardwalk Empire” soundtrack album.
