**The Preservation of Jazz Artist Spotlight: Zania Alaké**

For Zania Alaké, music is life — her safe place. With a soulful voice that spans decades and leaves listeners spellbound, Zania creates from real experiences, pouring her heart into every beat. Despite her vocal talent, she found herself singing background for artists like Tyrese, Phil Perry, and Gwenation. But as her confidence grew, so did her desire to step into the spotlight.

Now, Zania’s forthcoming EP promises a genre-bending journey with soothing, soulful songs. Her debut single, "Tempted," is a testament to real-life stories, speaking through and for women.

**Don't miss Zania Alaké live on September 23, 2024, at Aretha's Jazz Café. Showtime at 7 PM!**
