Norah Jones plays Baloise Session

Synopsis

Norah Jones has attained global celebrity status since 2002 when her very first album, Come Away with Me, was released. This record made her earning six Grammy Award, including album of the year and both record of the year and song of the year (“Don’t Know Why”). 2004's Feels like Home was Jones’ second album, and it was an instant hit, debuting at number one on the Billboard album chart and selling over a million copies in the first week. In 2007 she dropped her third album, Not Too Late, and stepped into the acting world for the first time, appearing in Wong Kar-Wai’s My Blueberry Nights; the movie debuted at the Cannes film festival. Later, Jones explored a wider musical range with The Fall (2009) and Little Broken Hearts (2012), featuring sombre electric instrumentation with elements of rock and soul. She returned to the jazz-inflected sound of her debut album for Day Breaks (2016). Her later recordings included the EP Begin Again (2019) and her seventh studio album, Pick Me Up Off the Floor (2020). In addition to her songwriting, she was rewarded with two Grammy Awards for her collaboration with Ray Charles on “Here We Go Again” for his last album, Genius Loves Company (2004). The release …Featuring Norah Jones (2010) was a collection of that and other such collaborations.
