Blending together elements of jazz, neo-soul, and contemporary R&B, New York-based singer-songwriter Shoni emerged in September 2019 with the uplifting debut single “Good Vibes”. In the vein of Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Jill Scott, and Erykah Badu, her seductive soprano vocals and commanding microphone presence struck a chord with listeners, who connected with the song’s themes of healing and self-love. Singing has been Shoni’s passion since she was just five years old, when she heard a girl at a talent show singing a Whitney Houson song. She felt goosebumps on her arm; it was then that she decided that she wanted to make other people feel the same way. By age 12, she started writing her own songs, and in college she studied jazz and classical music. She fell in love with the art of performing, and started working with other musicians and creatives to help them conquer their own performance anxiety. Shoni is the owner of the Beauty & Soul Healing Arts Studio in New York City, and is also the host of the successful Beauty & Soul Brunch and Podcast. She founded the Beauty & Soul movement as a platform for young, creative entrepreneurs to discuss health, wealth, love, business, and more. She is currently in the process of recording her debut EP, which is set to release later this year. Get to know Shoni! Follow her online for all the latest music, podcasts, and more!
