Grace Jones will lead New York's Blue Note Jazz Festival, marking her first headlining solo show in the city in over 10 years.
Jones will kick off the 12th annual edition of the festival on May 31 at Hammerstein Ballroom.
An array of jazz, blues, hip-hop and R&B acts from around the world are represented on the lineup, from BJ the Chicago Kid to Pat Metheny and Buddy Guy, whose band will include Christone “Kingfish” Ingram and Samantha Fish, with special guest Bobby Rush.
Jones, who was born in Jamaica and moved to New York state as a teenager, began her career as a model, working with Parisian fashion houses such as Yves St. Laurent and Kenzo, as well as European photographers and designers Jean-Paul Goude, Guy Bourdin, Hans Feurer and Helmut Newton. She found success in the music industry beginning in 1977, when she signed with Island Records and became a notable figure in the Studio 54-centered New York disco scene.
