MOBO nominated singer-songwriter/cellist Ayanna Witter-Johnson joins us for a one off special intimate performance at the Ventnor Exchange.

Ayanna has captivated audiences worldwide becoming the only non-American to win Amateur Night Live at the Apollo Theater in Harlem, NYC, touring (Europe, India, U.S.) with Anoushka Shankar, recording with Marc Mac (4Hero), the Kronos Quartet and Akala as well as composing for the London Symphony Orchestra. Her two self-released EPs to date have led her to grace stages at the Royal Albert Hall, Royal Festival Hall and sell out her first headline show at the Jazz Café. Ayanna is currently recording her debut audience for release in 2017.

“The pressure at the top end of music today means that unless you can master your instrument, sing like an angel and write your own work you’re going to find it hard to reach the top! Ayanna is all these things and more and I'm her biggest fan!” -Gilles Peterson
