Hennessy recently partnered with international jazz vocalist & songwriter, Somi’s ‘The Gratitude Tour ‘.


The American singer and songwriter of Rwandan and Ugandan descent kicked off her tour in Lagos supported by songstress, Efya and rising star, Ese Peters.


With her New-York based band flown in to delight fans over 2-nights showcasing new material from Somi’s new album inspired by her 15-month creative sabbatical immersed in the fiery spirit of Lagos, Nigeria and scheduled for release internationally later this year.


The event was kicked off with a cocktail reception with four Hennessy signature recipes whilst guests waited to be seated for a specially-paired 5-course meal by Executive Chef Lalu before the lady-of-the-hour, Somi took the stage.


The star-studded contemporary music event is another testament to Hennessy’s support of global music events.
