Mica Millar - Will I See You Again (Live @ Albert Hall Manchester)

Cementing her position as one of the UK’s brightest new stars, Mica Millar wins ”Soul Act of the Year“ at the Jazz FM Awards 2022, alongside a second nomination for ”Breakthrough Act of the Year”.

Each year the prestigious Jazz FM Awards celebrate the utmost excellence of emerging soul and jazz musicians, and this year stars from across the international music scene descended on Shoreditch Town Hall, with Mica opening the ceremony with a special live performance.

The monumental win follows on from two massive album launch shows Mica played in September for the release of her debut album ”Heaven Knows”’, with a sold out show at the capital’s prestigious Jazz Cafe¦ followed by a special hometown performance filling out the iconic Albert Hall in Manchester, from which she shares a live performance of her song ”Will I See You Again” to celebrate.

On her win, Mica says: "I've never won an award before so this feels really special. I just love soul music so much and it's taught me so many lessons about love, empowerment, hope, faith, lessons in history”­ for me, it’s also taught me how to connect with and express matters of the soul and I’m so grateful for this. To win ”Soul Act of the Year” is really incredible.

Previous recipients of the ”Soul Act of the Year” award include Philip Bailey, Jon Batiste, Jill Scott, Moonchild and Poppy Ajudha.

”This year really has felt like a year of breaking through, it’s been incredible and I’m so grateful to everyone for all of the support I’ve received since releasing ”Heaven Knows” and particularly to Jazz FM who have been amazing at really getting behind me and the album. To be acknowledged for my work in a genre that I have so much respect and love for is a real honor”.
