Kandace Springs is an American jazz and soul singer, songwriter, and pianist known for her emotive vocal delivery and eclectic musical style that seamlessly blends contemporary R&B, jazz, and soul. Born on April 3, 1989, in Nashville, Tennessee, she grew up in a musical household and was deeply influenced by her father, Scat Springs, a respected session singer. Her natural talent for music quickly emerged, and she started to develop her skills as a pianist and vocalist at a young age.

Springs first caught the attention of the music world with her eponymous EP in 2014, which led to her signing with Blue Note Records. Her first full-length album, "Soul Eyes," released in 2016, was produced by Larry Klein and showcased her remarkable ability to interpret jazz standards as well as contemporary compositions. With her 2018 release "Indigo," Springs continued to hone her craft, blending traditional elements with modern sounds. Her acclaimed 2020 album, "The Women Who Raised Me," is a heartfelt tribute to the female vocalists who have inspired her, reimagining the work of legendary artists like Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, and Billie Holiday. Not confining herself to one genre, Springs shows versatility in tracks ranging from the acoustic tenderness of "Don't Need The Real Thing (Acoustic)" to the holiday spirit in "All I Want For Christmas Is You," demonstrating her broad appeal and ever-evolving artistry.
