Lizz Wright has been charming music fans worldwide ever since she appeared on the late pianist and composer Joe Sample’s 2002 disc, The Pecan Tree (Verve). Her albums Salt (Verve), Dreaming Wide Awake (Verve, 2005), The Orchard (2008), Fellowship (Verve), and Freedom & Surrender have been featured on Billboard’s “Top Contemporary Jazz” chart as well as lead to several partnerships with Grammy award winning artists.
With peculiar focus, Lizz seamlessly weaves through the genres of gospel, jazz, folk, pop, and blues, handling them like colors on a palette. Ultimately, it is the voice, the stories told and the call to connect that transcend categorization and stir her audiences. Lizz is a native of Georgia and studied classical vocal music at Georgia State University in Atlanta.
