With a bevy of accolades – multiple Grammy and Stellar award nominations; Nesby is one of music’s elite and the singer that American Idol’s Randy Jackson called “one of the best singers in the world!”
Now comes a special moment in Tyscot Records’ 30-plus year history, it has signed the Grammy Award winning urban/Gospel singing veteran and her new CD will hit stores in the spring, 2009.
Nesby’s returned to the studio to craft her new Gospel release “The Lula Lee Project” and her third full Gospel/Inspirational album within her solo repertoire. Working with an array of musical geniuses such as Gospel music maverick Tonex (John P. Kee, Tarralyn Ramsey, Montell Jordan); Herb Middleton (SWV, Faith Evans, Mary J. Blige); J. Isaac (James Grear & Company, Juelz Santana), and Debra Killings (TLC).
“The Lula Lee Project” marks her third full length Gospel/Inspirational solo album following her acclaimed 2003 “Make Me Better” and her 2006 “In the Spirit” albums and is her sixth solo album since her departure from The Sounds of Blackness.
“Lula Lee is the real Ann Nesby, she is who my family and husband sees on a daily basis,” says Nesby who adds, “Lula Lee is who I am personally outside the glitz and glamour associated with my ‘Ann Nesby’ persona.”
“We are thrilled to partner with Ann Nesby in presenting the ‘Lula Lee Project,’” says Bryant Scott – Tyscot Records President. “We are looking forward to a lasting relationship. Ann Nesby is one of a kind.”
“This project is a reminder that God is still in control,” explains Nesby who admits that the world has changed dramatically since her 1996 debut. “I always sing from the heart, and I believe that whatever is sung from the heart will reach the heart of the listener.”
