Alicia Olatuja at Penn Live Arts

About

“A singer with a strong and luscious tone and an amiably regal presence on stage,” (New York Times) Alicia Olatuja has astounded audiences with her exquisite vocals and artistic versatility. She burst into the national spotlight after performing at the 2013 Presidential Inauguration, and has since been praised by jazz diva Dianne Reeves as one of the finest young singers on the scene today. Blending her classical training with jazz, gospel and soul, Olatuja makes her Philadelphia debut performing music from her latest album, a celebration of women composers.
