Ledisi: The Legend of Little Girl Blue was the first concert residency by American singer Ledisi. It was held for three consecutive nights in December 2019. The residency was held at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills, California. Ledisi performed a set list consisting of her songs as well as songs written or performed by Nina Simone, backed by her own band to an audience of 500. The concept of the shows revolves around impact Ledisi's mother Nyra Young and American singer Nina Simone had on Ledisi's life and career. The show also featured a tribute to other influential figures, including Philandro Castile, Marilyn Monroe, Julia Roberts, and Michael Jackson.

Ledisi: The Legend of Little Girl Blue received mixed responses from music critics who praised Ledisi's vocals but also criticized the show for its "lack of narrative". The show sold out nineteen performances. The success of Ledisi: The Legend of Little Girl Blue has led Wallis Annenberg Center to ask Ledisi to return for another future production and in March 2024, the venue became the opening date of her The Good Life Tour.
