Veronica Elaine Nunn (born October 7, 1957) is an American jazz singer who has been the featured vocalist with Michael Franks since 1992.
In the late 1970s she moved to New York City to pursue a degree in theology at Lehmans College in the Bronx. Singing in the music clubs at night to support her college tuition, she met Big Nick Nicholas, who was a teacher of tenor saxophonist John Coltrane. She became a first-call jazz singer in Harlem and Greenwich Village. In 1997 she married jazz pianist Travis Shook and they started Dead Horse Records in Woodstock, New York.
