Art of the Song
Art of the Song is a one-hour, independently-produced radio show with music and interviews exploring inspiration and creativity through songwriting and other art forms. The program is heard on over 160 stations worldwide. Learn why songwriters and artists create, how they become inspired, and how you can tap into that creative source in every aspect of your life.
Our guest this week on Art of the Song is vibraphonist, composer, educator Nikara Warren. Born and bred in Brooklyn, New York, her grandfather is world-renowned jazz pianist Kenny Barron, and she’s the daughter of a half Trinidadian father, and a “Brooklyn ‘Round the Way” girl mother. Nikara celebrates Black excellence in music with her debut album, Black Wall Street. Viv had the honor of interviewing Nikara in front of an audience at a Martin Luther King commemoration at Caffe Lena in Saratoga Springs, New York.
