Description:
The Lyric Theatre presents their Live at the Lyric series featuring Kendra Morris on Wednesday, September 6, 2023.

The Lyric Theatre is excited to present Kendra Morris on the opening night of her tour in support of her brand new album "I Am What I'm Waiting For" which releases on August 25th.

New York noir soul artist Kendra Morris recalls singers who straddled soul and rock during the early '70s, such as Ruth Copeland and Chaka Khan. Her taste was developed through her parents' record collection, a library heavy on late-60s and early-70s soul and funk as well as a love for the cinema scores of the same period.

Concurrently a visual artist, filmmaker and animator, Kendra harnesses the feline nine lives metaphor repeatedly. In the context of the chapters of her musical trajectory alone, we see at least 9 lives. From discovering multi-tracking on a karaoke machine as a child, to playing in bands in Florida, moving to New York City and creating music alone on an 8 track, releasing her first two LPs on Wax Poetics, releasing her 2016 EP Babble and collaborating with DJ Premier, 9th Wonder, MF Doom, Czarface, Ghostface Killah, Dennis Coffey, and David Sitek, to name a few.
