Nevertheless, music has always been a special part of Ledisi’s life. Her father was a singer, step-father was in a band and mother sang as well.

Ledisi grew up in New Orleans and was inspired by the culture of music around there. She believes God gifted her with this voice and can’t wait to see what’s in store next year.
