WHY: To Celebrate The ASALH Martha’s Vineyard Branch Black & White Charity Fundraising Event[Martha’s Vineyard, MA, May 7, 2024] – The Martha’s Vineyard branch of the Association for the Study of African American Life and History (ASALH) is proud to announce an enchanting evening with Demola the Violinist, set to captivate audiences on June 19, 2024 at the 8th Annual Black & White ASALH fundraiser.
Demola the Violinist, renowned for his captivating performances, will grace the stage at the historic venue of Martha’s Vineyard to deliver an unforgettable experience. With his exceptional talent and passion for music, Demola seamlessly blends classical mastery with contemporary flair, creating a unique and mesmerizing musical journey.
The magnificent part of Demola’s musical journey began in Nigeria and brought him to the shores of America, specifically Houston, TX. His musical stylings boast influences from around the globe. His performance style melds classical proficiency of the highest caliber with the rhythmic contributions of Hip- Hop, Soul, Jazz, Afro Beats, Pop, R&B, Rock, Soca, Reggaeton, Reggae and other Caribbean Rhythmic influences in awesome combination.
Demola’s artistry draws from powerful elements from the entire music spectrum. This incredibly diverse meld will create a captivating and rousing performance of epic proportions. A Demola performance is truly something to behold, and recent repeat bookings with Music Halls all over the country, including City Winery national locations and numerous House of Blues bookings, is a testament to that. Demola is a part of the next generation of violin virtuosos, genre-bending and creating incredible music that moves people.
We applaud Demola for coupling his enormous talent with an enormously necessary cause to help ASALH bring attention to the history, achievements and current challenges of African Americans in our country. “We are thrilled to host Demola the Violinist for what promises to be an extraordinary evening of music and culture,” said Thelma Johnson, President of the ASALH Martha’s Vineyard Branch. “His talent not only entertains but inspires, reflecting the rich heritage and diversity celebrated by ASALH.”
The Black and White Annual Fundraiser is a prestigious event that celebrates African Americans’ rich history and cultural heritage while supporting the vital work of ASALH Martha’s Vineyard Branch. This year’s fundraiser promises to be an elegant air, bringing together community leaders, supporters, and enthusiasts for an evening of philanthropy and celebration. Attendees can expect an immersive experience as Demola takes them on a musical odyssey, weaving together a tapestry of melodies that transcend boundaries and unite listeners in a celebration of artistry and expression. From classical compositions to modern interpretations, Demola’s performance promises to resonate with audiences of all ages and backgrounds.
