Taisha Estrada
"[Taisha] establishes herself at once as the ultimate ingénue - simple, unspoiled, unacquainted with the formulas and formalities of the world….she dreams her music...to perfection." - Raul de Gama of Latin Jazz Net
Rooted in the traditions of Latin and American jazz, Puerto Rican vocalist Taisha Estrada blends innovation with a multi-genre sound that captivates audiences. As a compelling songwriter and storyteller, she draws listeners in with her evocative lyrics and dynamic stage presence. Her work has been featured in The Washington Post and NPR, and she has headlined renowned venues like the Kennedy Center’s Millennium Stage.
Since her first album, Taisha is preparing to release a new single, titled “El Abstracto.” This delicately composed piece reflects on finding solace within ourselves and our communities during challenging times.

Cecily
"Her celestial vocal register and authentic lyrics place her in a lane that few can occupy." - Soulbounce
Vocalist and songwriter Cecily (pronounced Ses-suh-lee) captivates listeners with her agile soprano and introspective lyrics. Her music radiates a unique sensuality that shapes both her vocal style and deeply personal lyrics that explore themes of self-acceptance, freedom, community, and love.
Her rich, soothing sound is rooted in mid-century Soul and Jazz, often drawing comparisons to Minnie Riperton and Amel Larrieux.
Cecily’s current album, Awakening Pt. II, draws directly from Black feminist writer, bell hooks’ transformative text, All About Love. Throughout eight beautifully crafted tracks, Cecily examines the power of unconditional love. Moving beyond romantic notions, she delves into what Hooks describes as a “love ethic,” offering reflections on familial love, self-love, divine love, and love for the Earth.
