About Black Is The Color Of My Voice

Nina Simone was born Eunice Kathleen Waymon on 21 Feb 1933, in Tryon, North Carolina and was a pioneering figure in music, blending genres like jazz, blues, soul, gospel, and classical. Her amazing talent as a pianist and vocalist, paired with her unflinching activism, made her a trailblazer who inspired generations. Simone’s musical career was deeply influenced by her early classical music training, which she used to create a distinctive sound that transcended traditional genres.
