Natalie Douglas the acclaimed vocalist hailed as a true, true star by BBC London, sensational by Time Out New York and stirring by The New York Daily News has released her new long-awaited third album Human Heart on Friday, March 18. Human Heart is produced by Brian J. Nash. Human Heart weaves a tapestry of the Great American Songbook delivered with the captivating force of Natalie s incomparable vocal style. The album features her tributes to major jazz divas Abbey Lincoln (Throw It Away and Wholly Earth), Nina Simone (Mississippi Goddam) and Billie Holliday (Strange Fruit), in addition to her unique spin on classic standards like The Best Is Yet to Come and I Must Have That Man. She also performs singular standouts from the musical theater including The Human Heart from Ahrens & Flaherty's Once on This Island and Sleepy Man from The Robber Bridegroom, currently running Off-Broadway. The collection of highlights from her concert repertoire and fan requests is unified by a thread of essential emotional truth, be it love, anger, jealousy, rage, sorrow, or joy. Natalie s trademark storytelling and vocal power are matched by the sophisticated arrangements of longtime musical director Mark Hartman at the piano, and feature Jim Cammack on bass and Charles Ruggiero on drums, as well as Patience Higgins on saxophones and a full string section. Each tune in some way expresses my desire to honor The Ancestors, says Natalie. Some of these songs have been favorites since I first heard them as a child. The stories behind each selection inform a piece of what they mean to me. All of these songs flow from the love of music my parents instilled in me and connect me to the courage, passion, and fire of the artists that went before me. Natalie Douglas the seven-time MAC Award, Backstage Bistro Award and Nightlife Award Winner has garnered rave reviews for her unique mix of jazz, blues, standards, pop, folk and country music. She received the 2014 Margaret Whiting Award at Carnegie Hall from the Mabel Mercer Foundation and her portrait has been added to the Birdland Jazz Club Wall of Fame.

In a Greenwich Village tradition, she performs an annual New Year s Eve collaboration with Mark Hartman at the Duplex. Her solo recordings include her debut CD, Not That Different which was nominated for a 2000 MAC Award for Outstanding Recording and the Nina Simone tribute To Nina...Live At Birdland, praised by JazzReview.com for its great music and personal insight.
