On this Wednesday night, we had another songstress, it’s our own KL girl, Ushera Yusof!
Ushera started off like many aspiring musicians, holding dear to her 9-5 job whilst in her spare time she singing at open-mics and gigs. After a good six years, Ushera decided to take the plunge into becoming a full-time musician in December 2012.
Ushera as of today, performs in three different formats, each with intriguing concepts of their own. First would be her #ROGUE A Night Of Cabaret with Ushera. A wild theatrical performance taking cues and songs from the musical theater world. Second is The Acoustic Ensemble where Soul Ballads, Swing, Bebop, Blues and Latin Jazz come alive. Finally there’s USHERAINTHEGROOVE, where Ushera assembles a 5-7 piece band to created a combined experience of chill-out and funky house.
She’s performed a multitude of jazz festivals from the ubiquitous yearly Publika Jazz Festival to the recent World Youth Jazz Festival in May 2015 at Jalan Mesui, Kuala Lumpur. As a recording artist, Ushera has just released her first single Give Me on August 10th and the music video is under wraps and is set to be released on September 10th.
For the record, Ushera scored 14!
