NICOLE HENRY
“I had the sense of being in the presence of a pop-soul superwoman whose every gesture and
inflection conveyed confidence and mastery.” - Stephen Holden, New York Times
“(Henry) can sell a power ballad as well as Whitney, Diana and Patti.” - Jazz Times
“A paragon of perfection. The voice that pours out of her is even more impressive…the vocal
love child of Whitney Houston and Sarah Vaughan." -Jordan Levin, Miami Herald
“Listen and you’ll hear an artist who knows how to make a song her own… Henry aims right for
the emotional center…". - Philip Van Vleck, Billboard
Since her debut, Nicole Henry has established herself among the jazz world's most acclaimed
performers, possessing a potent combination of dynamic vocal abilities, impeccable phrasing,
and powerful emotional resonance.
Her passionate, soulful voice and heart-felt charisma have earned her a Soul Train Award for “Best
Traditional Jazz Performance," and three Top-10 U.S. Billboard and HMV Japan jazz albums.
Heralded by The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, The Japan Times, El Pais, Jazz Times,
Essence and more, Ms. Henry tells real stories through peerless interpretations of repertoire from
the American Songbook, classic and contemporary jazz, popular standards, blues and originals.
She has captivated audiences in over 20 countries, headlining at venues in cities including New
York, Tokyo, Madrid, Moscow, Paris, Shanghai, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, San Francisco and
Miami. Ms. Henry has also performed in more than 30 music festivals worldwide and in some of the
world’s most famous venues including Blue Note; Jazz at Lincoln Center; Blues Alley; Arsht Center;
Feinstein’s; Green Mill; Jazz St. Louis; Madrid Jazz Festival; the Regattabar; and Catalina Jazz.
She has recorded with some of today’s musical greats including Kirk Whalum, Julian Lage, and
Gerald Clayton and has performed with the Duke Ellington Orchestra, the Henry Mancini Institute
Orchestra and Michael Feinstein. In late 2019, Ms. Henry returned to the theatrical stage and
garnered critical praise in the musical version of “The Bodyguard,” and in early 2020, she was cast
in the world premiere of the new musical “A Wonderful World,” on the life of Louis Armstrong.
Growing up in a musical family in Bucks County, PA, Ms. Henry immersed herself in the arts early
on, singing in school and church, and studying cello and ballet. After graduating from the
University of Miami with a degree in Communications and Theatre, she launched a successful
acting career, appearing in national commercial roles as well as a series of voiceover
assignments. However, she directed her strongest passion toward the development of her full-time
singing career which was quickly rewarded when the Miami New Times named Nicole “Best Solo
Musician.” Since then, based on her various career accomplishments and active commitment to
supporting non-profits such as Miami Music Project (Board Member), YoungArts and Miami
Children’s Initiative (past Board Member), proclamations from the City of Miami Beach and
Miami-Dade County have named “Nicole Henry Days” in 2011, 2016 and 2017. Ms. Henry has also
served two terms on the Board of the Florida Chapter of the Recording Academy (GRAMMYs).
