Ledisi
One of soul and R&B’s great voices returns with a new album to the intimate, historic setting of Södra Teatern.
With 15 Grammy nominations and a win for Best Traditional R&B Performance, Ledisi is one of the most captivating voices of her generation. Born in New Orleans, raised in Oakland, and with a career spanning from local clubs to sold-out concerts at Carnegie Hall, she has repeatedly redefined the soul and R&B genres with her explosive presence and emotional precision.
On her latest album The Crown, she blends jazz-honed technique and gospel-rooted conviction with contemporary R&B stories of love, self-worth, and heritage – music that, in her own words, is “built like church first, then dressed for the club.”
The album title comes from a phrase she repeated after her acclaimed performance at Super Bowl LIX: “Remember who you are; fix your crown” – a reminder to herself, to her audience, and to “all the little Ledisis” who look up to her.
At Södra Teatern, audiences can expect the same mix of raw presence, musical finesse, and life-affirming energy that has made Ledisi an icon.
