This Grammy winning singer returns to The Grand blending West African traditions with New World R&B, funk, and soul. Noted for her diverse musical influences, Kidjo believes in the power of music to heal and unite. "Her spirit is irrepressible, and she brings life to everything she touches," says musician Peter Gabriel, and USA Today notes, "Kidjo seizes your attention and then keeps you riveted."
Kidjo's Grammy-winning 2007 release Djin Djin has yielded her a collection of critical praise, including coverage in Vanity Fair, Time, People, Le Monde, among other esteemed outlets. Kidjo and her incredible band of multi-cultural musicians have performed on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno," "The Late Show With David Letterman" and "The CBS Saturday Early Show."
