Jazz vocalist, composer, arranger, and Grammy-nominated artist Carmen Lundy has always been a driving force for bringing the Jazz genre into the contemporary music world. Her 2019 album Modern Ancestors is nominated for a Grammy for Best Jazz Vocal Album at this year's Grammy Awards.

Carmen Lundy is the first of a vying breed, propelling the contemporary jazz movement with purist detail, juxtaposing sounds and soulful charm. Her legacy, four decades long, has reshaped the jazz canon. Ms. Lundy continues to innovate, drawing from current affairs and artistic influences from the African diaspora to mold her latest album Code Noir.
