When Anita Baker leaves the stage at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival this weekend, she doesn't plan on taking anything with her.
Baker has headlined in the Crescent City before, but five years after Hurricane Katrina, she says "I think that we're more adamant about just leaving my whole body there. And just giving everything that I have. Because we want them to be entertained."
The 52-year-old singer with the husky, red velvet vocals has won eight Grammy Awards for hits including "Giving You the Best That I Got," "Rapture" and "I Apologize."
She'll step away from a music studio in Nashville where she's working on a new album, just in time for Sunday's show. It will be an opportunity "to play, talk and holler and scream and dance," she says.
