Details

Members of Butcher Brown reunite with vocalist Yaya Bey for a one-time-only performance that showcases their collaborations and independent projects.
Drummer Corey Fonville, bassist R4ND4ZZO, and multi-instrumentalist DJ Harrison perform together (with bandmates Marcus Tenney and Morgan Burrs) all over the world in the sensational soul jazz band, Butcher Brown. Fonville and Harrison are also members of the Grammy-nominated Super Blue ensemble, with vocalist Kurt Elling and hybrid guitarist Charlie Hunter. Butcher Brown's latest album, Letters From The Atlantic (2025), features vocalist Yaya Bey on the track "I Remember."
“Our session with Yaya Bey was special because she came down to Richmond – we sat down and chopped it up for hours before recording together. You can feel that family energy on ‘I Remember,’ like laid back kicking it at a barbeque on the Fourth of July,” the band explains. “That’s the important part about being in person for sessions is you just want to vibe with the person. We’re more concerned with that than anything, and it comes across on that song.”
New York-bred R&B vocalist Yaya Bey conjures a comprehensive self-portrait on her new studio album, Ten Fold. Where her previous works were earnest and mindful, Yaya’s new LP is definitive, harkening back to aspects of her past while examining the future of the world that surrounds her with a stream-of-conscious intentionality. Over rapturous production from Corey Fonville of jazz group Butcher Brown, Karriem Riggins, Jay Daniel, Exaktly and Boston Chery, Yaya delivers a free-spoken masterpiece that speaks to the intricacies of persevering through a year punctuated by grief and loss, life-altering milestones and everything in between.
In 2021 Bey was profiled by Rolling Stone and also contributed to the publication’s The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list. Bey is also a critically acclaimed multidisciplinary artist and art curator, creating the artwork for her music through collages of intimate photos and self-portraits. In 2019, her work was featured in the District of Columbia Arts Center’s “Reparations Realized” exhibit and Brooklyn’s Museum of Contemporary African Diasporan Arts (MoCADA)’s “Let the Circle Be Unbroken” exhibit. She also completed multiple fine art residencies with MoCADA, curating programs that reflect the same theme that drives her music: the Black woman’s experience.
