WHAT:

Five-time Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter and producer Lalah Hathaway is announced as joining the all-star lineup of Black Movie Soundtrack IV on Wednesday, August 24, at the Hollywood Bowl. She was previously named to kick things off at Smooth Summer Jazz with George Benson and Boney James on Sunday, August 28.

WHO:

Undeniable music royalty and a 30-year music industry veteran, Lalah Hathaway transcends genre with her music—from R&B ballads to pop standards and soulful jazz. She has collaborated with today’s top hitmakers, including Pharrell Williams, Kendrick Lamar, Dr. Dre, Anderson .Paak and Snoop Dogg. Lalah has also shared the stage with music legends, from Prince to Stevie Wonder to Anita Baker. Film and television credits include appearing as herself in the 2017 hit film Girls Trip, as the wedding singer in the series finale of BET’s Being Mary Jane, a cameo in Yvette Nicole Brown’s film Always a Bridesmaid, and features such as a special guest appearance on the latest season of Family Reunion on Netflix. Lalah headlined the Lincoln Center’s Out of Doors summer concert series in 2019 with her sold-out show Legacy: Lalah Hathaway Sings Donny Hathaway. Lalah also served as a featured artist on the “lost” album Rubberband by the legendary Miles Davis, appearing on the single “So Emotional.” Lalah’s song “Show Me Your Soul,” from the hit documentary Mr. Soul!, was featured on the Oscars 2021 shortlist for Best Original Song.
