NUNNABOVE
NUNNABOVE has been called the “next generation of the Minneapolis sound”. They were featured on season 13 of America's Got Talent. "The Current calls them "Minneapolis's latest and greatest." Terry Lewis says "They have many years of music ahead of them", Star Tribune's national music critic Jon Bream says "they have oodles of talent and potential". Sounds Of Blackness Gary Hines says, "They are super-talented, highly-skilled and gifted musicians, writers and performers with a unique sound and style." The band has shared the stage with the 3-time Grammy Award-winning Sounds of Blackness, PJ Morton of Maroon 5, Stokely, and many others.
NUNNABOVE is Cadence, Mattie, Bennett, and Wisdom; four siblings from the Twin-Cities taking their influences from funk, jazz, rock, neo-soul, and Midwest-emo to generate their own sound and style from The Purple One to the Gloved One, The 1975 to Chaka Khan. For these siblings, family is life and the key to what they create musically. As a featured new artist at Prince’s Paisley Park Celebration in 2023, they “shined the brightest” as one of the 5 most memorable moments. As Matthew Allen of the Grio writes, “The Minneapolis Sound seems to be in good hands.”. Chaka Khan, who also attended the celebration, heard the group and embraced them with praise when she met them. She then invited them to open for her and Boys II Men two months later at the Minnesota state Fair.
With new music dropping Spring, Summer and Fall, 2024 promises to be another great year for NUNNABOVE with several new releases and new shows for current and new fans alike!
