Pierce Freelon

2X GRAMMY nominated Pierce Freelon’s joyful music blends hip-hop, electronic jazz and soul.

His modern and dynamic sound is inspired by his journey as a millennial dad and is carefully crafted for today’s modern families. Through honest and playful lyrics, rich melodies and fresh beats, he shares his story and welcomes kids and adults to his world.

Pierce’s critically acclaimed work has been featured on the TODAY Show, NPR, Billboard, Rolling Stone, Parents Magazine and the PBS Kids animated series’ Alma’s Way and Work it Out Wombats! He is also the co-creator and talent of the PBS Kids podcast “Jamming on the Job” and has written two children's picture books with Little Brown.

In 2024 Pierce was GRAMMY nominated alongside his mother, jazz singer Nnenna Freelon, for their first family album together, AnceStars.
