2004 GRAMMY award winner for best packaging

Evolve finds Ani in continuous pursuit of new musical directions. In between the gentle opening tones of "Promised Land" and the hushed closing chords of "Welcome To:," the record encompasses a variety of styles, from soaring three-part harmonies and Ani's trademark acoustic fireworks to horn- and clavinet-driven funk and syncopated Latin grooves. The 12-song record is the definitive musical statement from Ani and her 5-piece band, full of genuine poetry and innovative sounds.
