British vocalist, cellist and composer Ayanna Witter-Johnson will be on stage at The Forge in London on 7th March 2012.

Ayanna is leading the way in Black folk music. She is the first non-American to win the legendary Amateur Night at the Apollo Theatre in Harlem – and one of only a handful of people to win with an original composition.

She has worked alongside UK artists Courtney Pine, Nitin Sawhney, Jason Yarde, Robert Mitchell, Nick Mulvey, Gwyneth Herbert and Fraser Fifield and a host of international artists including Chinese folk artist Xiao Juen and the Australian Indigenous musical force Black Arm Band.
 
Tonight’s solo performance will contain works from her acclaimed EP “Truthfully”.
