Olivia K & The Parkers is the brainchild of Olivia K, singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and fearless leader. Her music infuses soulful R&B with diasporic Afro-funk, drawing from her Afro-Caribbean roots to create a unique and enthralling experience for her audience. A Brooklynite since birth, and proud of it, Olivia Khe-ra and her multi-piece ensemble rose from the ashes of COVID with a mission to brighten up an all-too-dark world. Following packed shows at Brooklyn Bowl, Brooklyn Museum’s First Saturdays, BRIC’s Celebrate Brooklyn, and a residency at Joe’s Pub, Olivia and the band have polished their feel-good sound to a high sheen. Their sets of honey-sweet originals are just the thing to make you leave your problems out on the street and get you up on your feet.
Olivia K & The Parkers performs Thursday, January 11th at 7:30 pm. For further information, please visit the Lincoln Center website
