Norah Jones, born on March 30th 1979 in New York City, is one of the most popular contemporary 'jazz' and jazz-influenced singers of our time.

Her debut album 'Come Away With Me' was released in 2002 and sold 22 million copies worldwide. It won 5 Grammy Awards in 2003.

On January 30, 2007 Norah Jones released her third album, 'Not Too Late' - a collection of 13 original songs, itunes includes a bonus live track of the song 'Sinkin' Soon'. This was the most pre-ordered album of all time on Amazon.com.

The daughter of 'Beatles'-influencing sitar virtuoso 'Ravi Shankar', Jones doesn't closely follow any particular genre, rather she brings her unique jazzy flavor to songs with roots in country, folk, Americana, and modern light jazz, pop and rock.
