Freedom - A Juneteenth Celebration

June 19, 2026 - Myron's at the smith center

Please join me at The Smith Center on June 19 for a vibrant concert experience that blends music, movement and the power of story to explore freedom in all its forms. Celebrating resilience, identity and collective joy, Freedom – A Juneteenth Celebration reflects on the meaning of the historically celebrated day of emancipation and liberation of African American people while honoring the journey from struggle to strength. Featuring music alongside dance, percussion and spoken word, the evening will unfold as a rich, layered experience.

Moving through spirituals, jazz, Broadway, soul and contemporary favorites, the show has an emotional arc that carries audiences from reflection to renewal. Informed by the personal connection of my Liberian roots and West African ancestry, the program is both deeply personal and powerfully universal, culminating in a heart-pounding, exhilarating evening of music that celebrates freedom, joy and the brilliance of the human spirit. I am so excited to be doing this show!

As many of you know, my concert themes focus on unity, human empowerment and the transformative power of music. Don’t miss Freedom – A Juneteenth Celebration this June. The show will inspire you, and I promise you will leave feeling great! It is going to be a fun and inspirational night of music!

It all happens at 7 pm on Friday, June 19 at Myron's at The Smith Center.

See you then.
