Each month celebrated pianist Joe Alterman brings along his favorite musical guests for a one-of-a-kind jazz brunch, blending smooth live performances with unscripted, talk show-style interviews that go behind the music.
Special guest artist for January 11 is Lavahi, Scholar-Artist and Founder & CEO of Replay and Rewind Records, on a mission to better society from the inside out. Through her music, scholarship, and performance, LAVAHI is building a platform to nourish the heart and mind, empathize our human experiences, and vibe together.
As a daughter of jazz, the culture heavily informs her ideology and influences her sound. Acrobatic scatting, compelling chords, and the art of improvisation evoke that classic traditional aesthetic and set her contemporary sound apart from the norm of mainstream neo-soul, hip hop, and R&B. And with her satisfying blend of analog and digital sounds, Lavahi shows that the lineage of Black sound is not linear but ever folding and stretching.
Lavahi also produces, plays flute and piccolo, and arranges. She has added her unique sound to national and international projects in genres varying from rap to film scores to alternative.
Whether through performance in music, in writing, or in academic spaces, Lavahi allows her own vulnerability to cultivate the vibe and create a safe space, internally and externally, for those sharing the experience with her.
