Thursday, July 21 - Nekita Waller Band Sponsored by WCC & FTDT Board of Directors (see the full schedule) There was never a question that music would be a part of Nekita Waller's life. From her first composition in her daycare class, to performing at the Apollo Theater in High School, to recently performing to several thousand on the New Haven Green at the International Festival of Arts and Ideas - music defines Nekita's life. Born in Alabama and raised in Connecticut, Nekita's diverse journey has taken her through chorus and choir groups, musical theater as a child at the Hartford Conservatory, singing Gospel in church, courses at Hartt School of Music, mentoring and singing with local independent artists to opening for artists Ruben Studdard and B.B. King. This experience has exposed Nekita to a variety of musical styles. Nekita's live music repertoire includes, pop, Motown, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Tower to Power, Bruno Mars, Michael Jackson, Classic Rock, R&B, Pop, Gospel, Country, and originals. Those who support and enjoy her music are as diverse as the music Nekita performs. From young to old, of all backgrounds, Nekita moves, entertains, and connects with all who listen. Please note: New 6:30 pm start time! Brought To You By The Windsor Chamber of Commerce & First Town Downtown For more information call 860-688-5165 |
