Gretchen Parlato

This duo between Grammy-nominated vocalist Gretchen Parlato and acclaimed guitarist Lionel Loueke had been written in the stars for years. Each in their own way, they made their mark on the international jazz scene, both with soulful melodies and improvisational genius. Their album Lean In (2023) - honed by years of collaboration - is a testament to the power of musical camaraderie and shared vulnerability. Hear two visionary masters at work; soothing yet joyful and full of light. The album was nominated for the Grammies within the Best Jazz Vocal Album category - among other greats such as Fred Hersch, Esperanza Spalding and Cécile McLorin Salvant.
