Four-Time Juno Award Nominee Kreesha Turner blew away the crowd at the SohoJohnny Presents Let Me Help Inc. 9/11 Celebrity Benefit Concert held at the @Rumi Event Space in NYC on 9/11/21. Kreesha Turner marries pop, jazz and R&B to create an infectious sound that goes perfectly with her distinctive but smooth vocals. Imagine a mix of Jazmine Sullivan with Duffy/Amy Winehouse and you can get an idea of Kreesha’s sound.
Kreesha Turner started with Billie Holiday’s “Don’t Explain” and melded into “Black Magic” an incredibly beautiful song from her debut album “Passion.” Her poise and beauty along with her sultry voice mesmerized the sold-out crowd, who were speechless at her stage presence and performance. She sang with such emotion, it was magical. This performance was the highlight of the evening with a show filled with incredible talent.
