One of the things that has transcended time is music. Modern and ancient people alike have turned to music to help heal, to grow, to celebrate and explore. Music is something that has been around since the beginning of recorded history and something that will likely continue for as long as the human race is in existence. One artist that has transformed music into something new is Heather Headley. Heather brings a soft, serene presence to her soulful sounds. Her Whitney Houston looks don't hurt either. Some of her work includes greats like Always Been Your Girl and I Wish I Wasn't, two of my favorites.
