In celebration of Black Music Month, Andra Day will be bringing her luscious vocals to Los Angeles for a concert, which will be broadcasted live courtesy of Amazon’s Rotation.
The powerful singer will hit the Warwick stage on Friday night (June 7) as part of City Sessions from the streaming giant’s Forever the Influence series.
Tickets are still available for the L.A. show through Dice for $15 retail. Doors for the 21-plus event open at 5 p.m. PT with the concert starting at 6 p.m. PT. For those who can’t attend, fans will be able to live-stream it on Amazon Music’s Twitch channel.
There will be plenty of more programming courtesy of Amazon Music’s Rotation in the coming weeks. “In June, we celebrate Black Music Month by honoring Black artists whose works are potent reminders that Black music is the American songbook across a multitude of genres,” said head of hip-hop and R&B for Amazon Music, Sierra Lever.
She continued: “With Forever the Influence, fans around the world will have a front-row seat to live performances from artists who are continuing to expand the reach of Black music and cultural influence across generations.”
Andra Day is set to be performing soothing cuts from her CASSANDRA album, which will be followed by a Q&A with the audience.
The Golden Globe-winner’s CASSANDRA album arrived on May 10 and served as Andra Day’s first solo LP since her debut in 2015. “I just named it after myself, interestingly to ground myself again in who I was designed and made to be,” she told Billboard of the project at the 2024 Women in Music event in March. “I want it to just be a little less apologetic and raw about my experiences.”
The “Cheers to the Fall” singer also recently sat down with amNY where she promised fans it won’t be another nine years before her next album.
“I do want to put together more music, more consistently,” she said. “I’ll take another break at some point. It won’t be another nine years. I really want to make EPs with artists that I love. Just drop a whole bunch of EPs. All types of genres. All types of styles. I want to bolster other producers that worked on this album.”
