Shamika Byrd
Live At Suburban Station
Friday, December 8th, 2017
Spreading the joy of the season, SEPTA, AthenianRazak LLC and Phila Jazz Project present 4 FREE & Cool Holiday Concerts in Suburban Station on Fridays in December. Actress and vocalist, Shamika Byrd continued the concert series with a soothing and soulful mix of holiday cheer and funky reflections.
Shamika Byrd is a classically trained vocalist, actress and producer, who began her career singing gospel on her grandmother’s bus trips. She is a graduate of Eastern University and toured Europe, singing Gospel and Negro spirituals to sold out crowds. It is the synthesis of traditional Gospel music, with her Classical music training that ultimately converge in Jazz, which fuels Shamika Byrd's creativity. She has performed at the Venice Island Performing Arts Center, Welcome America Festival at Penns Landing, Berks Jazz Festival, Lancaster Avenue Jazz Festival, Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts, Chris’ Jazz Café, Firehouse Café and other venues.
Byrd was joined by her quartet, featuring Aaron Childers - piano, Brian Lomax - bass and Tracy Smith - drums. The session was recorded by Chris Andrew McDonald and photographed by Alexis Simmons. Special thanks to Melissa Talley Palmer and Yvonne Jackson for assistance.
