It is a dream-come-true to share that in March 2026 we’re coming to LATIN AMERICA!

This is a first for me, and such a long time coming. I‘ve had more requests to play this region than literally anywhere else, and I’m beside myself to know I’ll be there soon. Let’s do this!

Join me alongside Robert Ames and London Contemporary Orchestra as we present the orchestral version of Chapters at The Concertgebouw, Amsterdam this May 18th!

Together, we’ll perform the Chapters trilogy start to finish, letting it fly in a whole new guise.

Grammy voting is OPEN, and to have my album Chapter III: We Return to Light and song ‘Daybreak’ (written with Alan Khan and Sarathy Korwar) in the running is a JOY.

CHAPTER III: WE RETURN TO LIGHT AND 'DAYBREAK' ARE NOMINATED FOR GRAMMYS!
🤯🫠

I’m beyond grateful to have received my 12th & 13th noms. For these two to be alongside the incredible Alam Khan and Sarathy Korwar, with whom I made this music, makes it all the sweeter.

A favourite raga of mine from the vaults.

Bhairavi is traditionally a morning raga, but in forms like Sindhi Bhairavi it often wanders into looser, more romantic, late-night moods. I often turn to it in moments of sadness or melancholy, and find it always carries me through.

Revisiting an epic and meaningful moment from North Sea Jazz Festival this summer: the very first time my beautiful sister Norah Jones and I performed together onstage.

‘Traces of You,’ a song full of memory; written in love, shared in joy.

This Prom began as wish.

It’s been an incredible journey - one that led me (eventually!) to the @royalalberthall.bsky.social with London Contemporary Orchestra and Robert Ames, where we performed all three albums from start to finish.
