GBH Music Presents JazzNOW with Farayi Malek

7:15pm Thu, Apr 10, 2025

Farayi Malek has traveled the world through music as a Grammy-nominated vocalist with Danilo Perez’ Global Messengers; and now musically, she’s going back to her own roots. From the American folk music and hymns of her childhood, to the blues and jazz she studied, Farayi brings all of the diverse sounds and experiences of her life into resonant songs that allow her effortless vocals to shine. The Salt Lick Incubator award-winner will be releasing her debut EP March 27th, 2025. This concert will feature music from her EP as well as Americana arrangements of her favorite spirituals and jazz standards, which as she says, are all rooted in the blues.

This event will be hosted by Paris Alston, the host of GBH News Rooted .
