* Krisha and the 209'sKrisha and the 209's

Time: 6:00 pm

"Working to create tunes together with fellow musicians is a magical process that has taught me so much about music’s potential. Writing my own songs holds a place for self-discovery and play while being an expressive outlet for my deepest pain, joy, hopes, and dreams. I have the continuous gift of being exposed to a diverse range of musical styles and inspiring artists. It all adds to my journey, especially when the music has a heartfelt message to share or a soulful story to tell. I hope this becomes a place to share and connect with you through my music. I believe music has the ability to connect, enhance, heal, and save lives. It helps us to feel deeply and empathize with one another."
