This week we’ll be playing music from all of Norah’s albums including her most recent ‘The Fall’.

Norah is the daughter of Indian sitarist Pandit Ravi Shankar and dancer Sue Jones, and the half-sister of Anoushka Shankar. Her career began with her 2002 debut album ‘Come Away with Me‘, an adult contemporary vocal jazz album with a soul/folk/country tinge that received eight Grammy Awards including Album of the Year and Record of the Year. Norah also won Best New Artist. This was followed by her second album ‘Feels like Home‘ in 2004 and her third ‘Not Too Late‘ in 2007.

She has sold more than 17 million albums in the US and over 37 million records worldwide. Altogether, she has sold more albums than any other female jazz artist during the 2000s.

On December 11, 2009, Jones was named Billboard’s 60th-highest artist of the decade based on charting of her songs.
