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.
