We hope you can join us for a high energy evening as Dr. E joins forces with The Doni Jai Band!

Dr. E is a multi-dimensional personality- author, professor, performance artist, captivating soul singer, songwriter, and more! Spring/summer 2017 marks the release of her new album, “Songs for the Struggle.” As a songwriter, she poetically delivers her own experiences in a genre-melding set of funk, soul, rock, and r&b.

As a vocalist, Dr. E evokes the tone and feel of Betty Wright and a Bluebelles-era Patti LaBelle. Her eclectic musical influences have evolved into her own style hallmarked by a mixture of bluesy melodies, vulnerable sighs and vibrant vocals. Her 2010 debut CD Elevated, earned her a nomination for best new artist by soultracks.com. Expect to be elevated by a funky night with The Inspirational Soul Queen!
