Kenya Templeton
Charlotte, NC-based singer Kenya Templeton brings to settings a soul-revealing, conversational, and interactive musical experience weaving scatting, animalistic sounds, and soaring high notes. In 2021 Kenya debuted her solo jazz club performance at Middle C Jazz Club, Charlotte, NC, with a Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald tribute. Hayti Cultural Center, Durham, NC, presented her as part of their Black American Music Series. Ms. Templeton has been featured at the Long Live the Arts Festival at the Levine Center for the Arts, Gantt After Dark at the Harvey B. Gantt Center, CLT Shout Festival, and BOOM CLT in Charlotte, NC.
