Biography

"Songs are about whatever you want them to be about. For me it might mean something completely different than what it means to you. So I'd say it's about whatever the listener thinks it's about."

  • Born Geetali Norah Shankar on March 30, 1979, in Brooklyn, New York
  • Norah Jones launched her career with a No. 1 album, 2002's Come Away With Me. The album's first single, "Don't Know Why," peaked in the Top 30 on the Billboard Hot 100.  
  • Jones had a remarkable debut at the 45th GRAMMY Awards, collecting five wins for 2002, including Best New Artist, Album Of The Year for Come Away With Me and Record Of The Year for "Don't Know Why." That same year, she made her GRAMMY stage debut with a performance of "Don't Know Why."
  • Did you know? Jones is the daughter of sitar master Ravi Shankar and the stepsister of sitarist Anoushka Shankar.
