Overview
New World Soul represents collaborative musical strivings for increased racial justice in 2021, and particularly for those of African descent. Inspired by those who have passed and the musical traditions they created here in the "New World", our music will reflect the activism of those who became ancestors in 2020; building upon musical traditions that reflect the soul(s) of the New World by fusing jazz, highlife, mizik rasin, and African American spirituals.

About the Musicians
Founded in 2000, Zili has been bridging cultures, generations, and continents for over 20 years. All female, Zili performs an acoustic & electronic fusion of roots music of the African diaspora. With captivating sounds that evoke the African continent, Zili retraces routes of forced exile and cultural resistance through diasporic rhythm and song. Powerful Haitian, Brazilian and West African rhythms infuse Zili’s original creations and traditional folksongs. Reconnecting Haitian mizik rasin, Jamaican roots reggae, Afro-Brazilian samba, Afro-Cuban son, and African American spirituals, blues, jazz, and neo soul, Zili Misik honors its influences while creating a sound that is uniquely its own: New World Soul. www.zilimisik.com
