Singer

Kyshona mixes her love of storytelling with the sound of her musical roots. She delivers open honesty through her soulful, spiritual, and at times, guttural lyrics. She desires to connect and take her audience on a soul-stirring musical journey through her performances. She began her career as a music therapist, writing her first songs with her patients — the students and inmates under her care. She soon found the need to write independently and find her own voice, and endeavor which led her to the fertile ground of the Nashville creative community and songwriting culture.  Since then, she has learned how to balance her music career with her passion to heal and foster community through her non-profit organization Your Song.

Thrasher Opera House

Powerhouse rock & soul singer Bette Smith traces elements of her life-affirming current album The Good, The Bad & The Bette to her childhood in Brooklyn, NY. Musically, it connects to the gospel music she heard in church and the soul music on the corners. The release features guests Luther Dickinson from North Mississippi Allstars and Patterson Hood from Drive-By Truckers and was produced by Drive-By Truckers’ Matt Patton and engineer Bronson Tew. Receiving major praise, the record landed on “Best Albums of 2020” list by legendary critic Jim DeRogatis, whose “Sound Opinions” is broadcast on over 100 NPR affiliates around the country. Now with concerts returning at last, audiences can experience the sassy, soulful singer live and see why Smith is being compared to Aretha Franklin, Tina Turner, and the Bettys (Davis and Wright).
