YahZarah presented by Indie Soul Journeys live at City Winery Chicago - Monday, April 29, 2024 at 7:30 PM!
If the definition of the word “ceremony” entails adhering to life’s “protocols,” facing challenges with “ritual observance” and celebrating the realization of dreams as if a “formal or solemn rite,” then spectacularly talented, singer/songwriter/producer YAHZARAH has been nothing less than ceremonious in adhering to the pomp and circumstance of life. “When I was born, I had a naming-ceremony,” the five-octave natural soprano explains, “and [you know] when you’re born into Yoruba they put your feet on the ground and the ancestors tell them what you’re going to do with your life. And it was said that I would be a musician…that I would be a muse and that I would travel the world blessing the world with music.” While the revered African custom proved pointedly life-prophesizing, allowing for her gift and passion to lead her from promisingly talented youngster to a wildly exposed and accomplished music powerhouse in young adulthood, the powerhouse talent would find herself subsequently standing in ceremony through the varying occurrences life brings. Hence, the succinctly appropriate title of her curiously-anticipated, seven-years-in-the-making fifth set, The Ceremony.
