🎼The Cary Theater is excited to welcome local favorite @kyshonamusic to the stage!
Kyshona’s music creates space—for stories that are often overlooked, for voices that deserve to be heard, and for anyone who’s ever felt silenced or unseen. Her journey began not on a stage, but in hospitals and correctional facilities, where she worked as a music therapist and wrote her first songs with the students and inmates in her care.
Since then, she balances her music career with her passion to heal in community through her organization Your Song.
If you missed her Juneteenth Performance at DukeArts Music In The Gardens in 2024, be sure to grab a ticket for SEP 18!
🗓️SEP 18
🚪Doors: 7:00 p.m.
🎶Show: 7:30 p.m.
🎫Tickets – online or at the Cary Theater Box office.
See you there!
