The Merriweather Arts and Culture Center is thrilled to welcome Kyshona back to Columbia for a special performance at Slayton House in Wilde Lake. Kyshona last performed in Columbia in 2023 as part of a collaboration with members of the Howard County Youth Orchestra at Merriweather Post Pavilion.
Kyshona’s performance at Slayton House will follow a week-long residency in Howard County Public Schools, where she will be working with students to explore songwriting and telling their life stories through music. Kyshona’s school residency will be the third produced by MACC, and follows successful residencies featuring Las Cafeteras in 2024 and The Reminders in 2023.
The Merriweather Arts and Culture Center is able to produce school residencies free-of-charge for HCPSS because of the generous support of our community. Please consider making a donation at the link below to help us continue to bring world-class musicians to our local schools to help enrich and inspire our students.

About Kyshona
Kyshona is an artist ignited by untold stories, and the capacity of those stories to thread connection in every community. With the background of a licensed music therapist, the curiosity of a writer, the patience of a friend, the vision of a social entrepreneur, the resolve of an activist, and the voice of a singer, Kyshona is unrelenting in her pursuit for the healing power of song. She lends her voice and music to those that feel they have been lost, silenced, forgotten or alone. Through her organization Your Song, she facilitates therapeutic songwriting sessions with groups and individuals in hopes of reconnecting those who are divided. Of her past releases, one fan reviewer wrote: “Amidst these hard, divisive times, her music is a salve for the grief many of us are feeling about the resulting loss of family, friends, and community.”
