Natalie Jean is a Haitian singer/songwriter that specializes in Americana music. She can sing in

English, French, Spanish and Creole. Natalie Jean has been nominated for and won many awards

for her music including 6 nominations at the 2021 Josie Music Awards, in which she won

“World Artist of The Year” and “Versatile Artist of The Year”. She has also won two gold

medals at the Global Music Awards. Natalie is now a voting member in the Recording Academy,

the organization that hosts the Grammys each year.

Natalie does not follow any guidelines or rules when she writes her music. She utilizes a vast

array of genres when writing, trying to break down the barriers that usually constrict Americana

musicians. She stays true to herself writing and singing from her heart and soul, trying to create

music that makes a difference, music that people can take to heart and feel connected to.

Some of Natalie Jean’s biggest musical influences are Elvis Presley, Lena Horne, Ella Fitzgerald,

Celine Dion, Billie Holiday and Nina Simone.

Natalie released her first of six albums in 2013, a jazz/pop album titled Obsession, and her latest

album was released in February 2020 titled, Where Do We Go From Here? Which features the

emotional track “I Am.” Natalie Jean’s voice is paired beautifully with a wonderful guitar

melody. She delivers a very passionate ballad that provides listeners with a vulnerable look into

her life. It is a perfect example of Jean’s songwriting abilities and shows why she has been

nominated for so many awards in her career and why she has won so many of those awards.
