About
Israeli-born singer-songwriter Ester Rada takes the stage with a sound that effortlessly blends the power of American soul with the musical traditions of her Ethiopian heritage and Israeli upbringing.
Compared to songstresses ranging from Ella Fitzgerald, Nina Simone, and Aretha Franklin to Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, and Jill Scott, Rada brings a new voice to contemporary soul that has undeniable global appeal.
Be mesmerized as Rada performs tracks from her EP, Life Happens, and her latest self-titled album, described by the Guardian as showcasing “bombastic R&B, along with slinky soul balladry and a dash of reggae.”
