Tori Kelly

Tori Kelly came from the internet and talent contests with pop's oldest weapon: a voice that doesn't need to prove its strength, but proves it anyway. Moving between R&B, gospel, soul and radio ballads, she built a career that swings between virtuosity and vulnerability. Unbreakable Smile opened the mainstream door; Hiding Place revealed her faith in vocal form; the records that followed look for the person behind the range.

Why listen to Tori Kelly?

Her voice makes technique feel like emotion before the technique has a chance to show off.
