This year’s showcase featured: Ysaye Barnwell — singer, composer, arranger and Sweet Honey In The Rock alum; Be Steadwell — vocalist, composer and director; Ariel Horowitz — violinist, composer, activist; and Yasmin Williams — acoustic fingerstyle guitarist and composer. In addition, we premiered the trailer for Signing The Songs: A Legacy. Click here for more information on Signing the Songs.
