Samara Joy’s voice transports listeners to the jazz clubs of the last century, evoking legends like Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan. The 25-year-old five-time Grammy winner’s new album is "Portrait," a compilation of jazz standards and new takes on the Great American Songbook. She sat down with AP entertainment journalist Leslie Ambriz to talk about life after all those awards, how diving into “Portrait" has helped her continue to grow as an artist — and what it means to make her mark in the jazz world. #samarajoy
