Aveva

A new year brought a new artist to my awareness, the Israeli-Ethiopian singer Aveva Dese. She played a soulful set at the JCC in Washington DC. With only guitars backing her singing, the set highlighted her powerful voice and strong song writing. In between songs, Aveva told stories of her family’s history as they left Ethiopia for Israal, and her own search for identity. This article shares more of Aveva’s background and I found her website, as well.
