Alicia Waller

Alicia Waller performs for the Sunday Singers' Salon at Room 623. “Sunday Singers' Salon” is an exciting new series featuring an incredible roster of award winning Jazz vocalists. Alicia Waller is recognized for her work as bandleader for the jazz fusion ensemble Alicia Waller & The Excursion. A multi-talented singer-songwriter with a background as an operatic soprano, Waller has since focused on soul music, jazz, and the African diaspora as the foundation for her EP Some Hidden Treasure, released in February 2020 on innova Recordings, the label of the American Composers Forum. Her voice and sound have been hailed as “splendid and luminous,” as well as “flexible and virtuosic.” Waller’s work and process were featured in the documentary series What Moves You? by SkyHour. The short explores her vision to inspire cultural diplomacy through music, and desire to examine sounds capturing the depth and beauty of the human experience. She is a recipient of numerous awards, including acknowledgements from the NYC Women’s Fund, NYSCA, American Composers Forum, and New Music USA.
