Motor City native Kennedy has carved out a formidable body of work thanks to a vocal style that combines resemblances of Ella Fitzgerald, Sade, Anita Baker, a dash of Luther Vandross, and a particular mix of playful, seductive poise. In a few short years since coming East to one of the world’s most competitive entertainment capitals, Kennedy has amassed gigs and collaborations with Lalah Hathaway, Christina Aguilera, Kenny Lattimore, Monifah, and Cheryl Pepsi-Riley.

Called “the pulse of today’s music” (Pete Fallico, KCSM – The Bay Area’s Jazz Station), the Kennedy Administration boasts credits ranging from Stevie Wonder, Gregory Porter, and Andra Day to Lauryn Hill and a roster of acclaimed “musician’s musicians” in between.

Don’t miss a show that’s packed with energy and amazing musicianship; Kennedy’s joy and passion are, unquestionably, contagious. This particular Kennedy Administration is ushering in a brand new “Great Society” of sweet music, a group which Neal Ludevig, Executive Director of Harlem Arts Festival, applauds as “simply incredible.”
