Get ready to meditate, resonate, and alleviate with India.Arie.
The Grammy award-winning singer/songwriter has announced the release of her upcoming new EP, SongVersation: Medicine, due out digitally on June 30.
An extension of her 2013 release SongVersation, this seven song EP is India’s offering during these tumultuous times. The first single featured on the EP “I Am Light” appeared on the Beyond The Lights soundtrack as well as “Breathe,” which she performed alongside Erykah Badu at the 2016 Soul Train Awards.
“‘SongVersation: Medicine’ was made to be listened to in a quiet time, prayer, meditation, Yoga,” states Arie who continues, “My wish is that these songs bring softness, clarity, calm, and inspiration.”
Since 2011, India has been touring around the country with performance paradigm that she calls, SongVersation, which is an interactive experience that is part meditation, part prayer, part fellowship and part action.
Fans had the opportunity to view her SongVersation nationally in 2016 when she appeared on OWN’s Super Soul Sessions, and took the attendees on a journey on how to use their life experiences to break down, break through, break the shell, elevate and fly to being worthy of a better life.
India.Arie will be making several appearances at the 2017 ESSENCE Festival during Independence Weekend in New Orleans. Kicking off a weekend-long of festivities, she will be performing on the main stage on Friday, June 30 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. On Saturday, July 1, India will be appearing at the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center for an interview on the Center Stage as well as participating in the Beauty Expo. Concluding the weekend on Sunday, July 2, India.Arie will be performing a SongVersation that she wrote especially for the Essence crowd, where she will bring song and storytelling to life for attendees on the Empowerment Stage for the Moment of Power followed by a fan meet and greet at the Palmers booth.
