Product Details

Samara Joy didn't arrive quietly. A granddaughter of gospel musician Syl Coxe and niece to members of The Dixie Hummingbirds, she carries deep roots in the Black vocal tradition that inform every phrase she shapes. "Linger Awhile" announced a singer who had clearly done the listening, drawing from the Great American Songbook with genuine conviction rather than nostalgia.

The Deluxe version of this album includes never-before-heard b-sides as well as alternate arrangements of Linger Awhile material. Samara Joy is a two-time Grammy winner - BEST NEW ARTIST and BEST JAZZ VOCAL ALBUM. At just 23 years old, her Verve debut 'Linger Awhile' shows that with a voice, tone, and phrasing that harkens back to the most legendary jazz vocalists. Samara belongs in the company of iconic label-mates from Ella Fitzgerald to Sarah Vaughan to Billie Holiday.
