  • Lalah Hathaway, 2 time Grammy winner and daughter of the legendary Donny Hathaway, stopped by and blessed the SITM crew with a live performance that will blow you away.
    It sets things up perfect for her 7th studio album ‘Lalah Hathaway Live‘, lucky for fans of true R&B we get a firsthand look at the beautiful voice that will spoil us October 30th. Growing up in a music driven household following both of her parents’ lead (mother was a musician as well) may seem like a lot of pressure but you really get the sense that she was really just born to do this. Not only from her naturally calm demeanor but how effortless it looks and sounds as she performs. Hearing stories from legends like Mavis Staples and Stevie Wonder regarding her father’s legacy is probably the most surreal feeling - speaking to living legends about a legend who happens to be your dad. You can definitely feel the energy as she gives us a live rendition of “Angel” for our concert series.

    These are the ONLY voices following Anita's generation that bring a combo of mixed belts and low tones with some husk. Not to mention extreme riff accuracy.

    If you keep things about the music and your feelings people relate to your experience and share it with you. R&B like this forces you to the essence instead of just the act of love.
