Great Park Live

Maiya Sykes is back for her third Big Band concert and she’s ready to pull out all the stops. She’s a former back-up singer whose rendition of “Stay with Me” on The Voice in 2014 catapulted her to lead singer fame. Based in Los Angeles, Sykes is a classically trained musician who graduated from Yale and studied with Betty Carter and Nina Simone. Her recent guest vocal on funk band Scary Pockets’ mash-up of Etta James’ “I’d Rather Go Blind” and Lauryn Hill’s “Doo Wop” has 20.7 million YouTube views. With the Julian “J3PO” Pollack Trio as the band’s rhythm section, the tent is gonna really rock!
