Once-in-a-generation vocalist Samara Joy recently signed with Verve Records, and is releasing Linger Awhile, her full-length debut for the label. At just twenty two years old, Samara has already garnered critical acclaim for a voice “as rich as custard” (The New York Times) and a delivery that is “disarming [and] unhurried” (NPR Fresh Air). The Bronx native took home the 2019 Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition prize while still in college and performed on The Today Show earlier this year.
