Speaker Series & Concert: Benita Charles

Exclusively for Harlem Week: I will present a special presentation at the Harlem Public Library on August 3rd. 

At the event, I will share my musical journey and my approach to songwriting. I will also perform my original music from my Moments In Love CD, We Can Make A Difference EP as well as my new single, Never Ever Give Up! I look forward to sharing my passion and joy to the audience.

I hope you can join me! (This is a free event.)

A special thanks to all who came out to Blackhorn 51 last night! It was an awesome night and the audience was on fire!

Tonight was special because we were short our guitar player but we pushed through and performed anyway and we nailed it! It was so wonderful to know that we touched people's lives and made people happy with our music.  We made new friends and fans and enjoyed other great artists who played.  It was truly a magical night!

Thanks to our fans! You make all the hard work so worth it!!! Shalimar!

Thanks to all who attended the Make Music NY Show @ Corkscrew Wines BK!

The Benita Charles Trio @ Corkscrew Brooklyn Wines

The Power of Music: A special thanks to all who attended our show at Corkscrew Wines Brooklyn for the 13th annual Make Music New York festival.  It truly was a night to remember and one of our best shows to date.

One of the things that made this an exceptional show is the audience engagement we had.  We literally had the whole street singing along on our songs.  In addition to my original song, the Freedom Song.  The crowd also sang along to the cover song I do "Work To Do." They were attentive and hanging on to every word and note. The crowd stayed through the full performance and requested an encore! Additionally, they even gave me valuable feedback at the end to make my show even better.  It was so appreciated because it was given with love. 

One of the best compliments we got is the fact that even though we are a trio, we sounded like a full orchestra band and that we sounded very tight and in sync with each other.
The highlight of the night was when one of the audience members approached us to tell us their mother, who was wheel chaired bound and passing through reacted to our music.  She was told that she would die on Tuesday but she was determined to see her grandson's graduation and insisted on going.  Her nurse was pushing her wheel chair past us when they stopped and listened to our song, "Work To Do."  Her son told us that she reacted to the music and he was so excited about that! That touched my heart in such a way.  I can't explain the joy I felt in knowing that our music reached her to give a reaction.  That was the first time that had ever happened and it was truly a miracle. The power of music is incredible!!!

A special thanks to the owner of Corkscrew Wines Brooklyn, Karin  Holm Torres for requesting us and her staff for being so accommodating! They truly made us feel so welcomed.  She said she wants us back. I'm looking forward to more collaborations.

A special thanks to my band: Peter Archer (guitar) and Cheo (percussion) for their musicianship and professionalism.  It's always a pleasure and thank you for the music!

Thanks to all the new fans we made and our faithful fans.  You truly make this journey so worth it!

Last night's show was a message to me that I am on the right journey to changing the world through my music! I'm going to continue to "Let my Light Shine!"
