450 West 37th Street , New York City, NY 10018
Born in the American Midwest to immigrants from Rwanda and Uganda, vocalist and songwriter Somi draws inspiration from her multicultural background and international travels to create a lush Afro-beat straddling the worlds of jazz, soul, and pop.
With powerful expressiveness and a unique style of melodic storytelling, she is hailed as a modern day Miriam Makeba.

Somi will perform songs from her repertoire, both old and new, joined by guitarist Nir Felder, pianist Toru Dodo, bassist Ben Williams, and drummer Nate Smith.
