About

Jamaican soul singer Sevana recently graced NPR Music's Tiny Desk (home) concert series with a captivating performance alongside her six-piece band at the Kingston Creative Hub in September 2020. As a member of Protoje's In.Digg.Nation collective, Sevana mesmerized the virtual audience with her versatile vocal range, seamlessly blending traditional R&B, Caribbean gospel, soul, and reggae elements in her music.

Sevana, whose real name is Anna-Sharé Blake, initially gained recognition with the release of her self-titled EP in 2016 and later made her major label debut in 2020 with "Be Somebody." The concert showcased her talent and artistry, with standout moments including her poignant renditions of various songs that highlighted her unique musical style.

Despite the absence of a live audience, Sevana's performance radiated authenticity and passion, making it a memorable addition to the Tiny Desk (home) concert series. Her performance not only highlighted her vocal prowess but also provided insight into her background as a multifaceted artist with roots deeply embedded in Jamaican music culture.
