About

You may think you don’t know Nat Adderley, Jr.’s work—but unless you’ve just arrived on planet Earth, you most certainly do. As longtime musical director for Luther Vandross, Adderley composed, produced, and arranged some of Vandross’s most unforgettable hits, including Make Me a Believer, Give Me the Reason, and If This World Were Mine. His musical genius has also graced collaborations with icons like Aretha Franklin and Kirk Whalum. Now, returning to his jazz roots, Adderley brings his signature sophistication and soul to the stage with the Nat Adderley, Jr. Trio, celebrating their latest release, Took So Long.
