Other notable performance venues include performing with Remember Jones at Brooklyn Bowl, and House of Independent's. She has also had the privilege of joining Jah People at venues like Ardmore Music Hall, and Brooklyn Bowl.

Classically Essie has been fortunate to share the stage at Carnegie Hall with the Berlin Philharmonic for Beethoven's 9th Symphony under the baton of Sir Simon Rattle. She also has performed under Yannick Nézet-Séguin with the Philadelphia Orchestra at the Kimmel Center for multiple works, as well as several performances with the New Jersey State Orchestra.
