KeiyaA

We’re grateful for this intimate and powerful Silver Home Studio Session graciously recorded by KeiyaA, a singer-songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist based in New York and raised in Chicago’s South Side. On her recently released debut album, Forever, Ya Girl, she uniquely blends her jazz training and background with R&B, funk, and hip-hop elements, as well as primary inspiration from African American poets such as Jayne Cortez and Ntozake Shange. Her album was on several “Best of 2020″ lists including the New York Times, Brooklyn Vegan, and The Guardian and has garnered fellow-artist fans such as Solange, Moses Sumney, and Jay-Z.

KeiyaA performs “Do Yourself a Favor” and “Negus Poem 1 & 2” in this special “at home” Silver Studio Session.
