Queen AndreYah Black Featured In #MusicLov3rz Magazine February Edition!
Queen AndreYAH is a voice of heaven. Her name represents her royalty as a woman of God. It gives honour to the name of God, YAHWEH/(YHWH) the Hebrew tetragrammaton. This songstress and songwriter blends gospel, R&B and Jazz into angelic yet exceptionally powerful songs. Through her music she worships and sings of love, including her own life experiences.
Queen AndreYAH is born and raised in Stamford, Connecticut and currently based in New York City. She says, "My great-great grandfather George D. Hernandez, a tenor, sang light opera, jazz and spiritual songs worldwide. My late mother came from 8 generations of ministers, she exclaimed that I came out of the womb singing. I sang incessantly around the house. When my mother discovered my voice she said it was beautiful and sent me to study opera on weekends at age 11. My father, Gilbert Hernandez Black, a retired Negro League baseball player, was the sole proprietor of Black Records, a mom and pop record shop in Norwalk, Connecticut. As a child, my sisters Cheryl, Monique and I took part in dancing like Soul Train dancers in the windows of the shop. My father said we attracted many customers who purchased records. I've listened to all genres of music all my life, this has given me a musical understanding I am very grateful for.”
Queen AndreYAH's music has also been featured on USA and Russian radio, Piccolo and M.O.J.A Festivals in Charleston, SC and the White Dog Festival in Belorussia. She has produced concerts and one-woman shows in jazz venues on Broadway and off-off Broadway. She got her start years ago at Jazz Cultural Theater in New York City, where Barry Harris was a partner. She has also showed her work at Club La Mama Theater, The Metropolitan Room, Triad Theater and other venues off-Broadway.
Queen AndreYAH Black’s self-titled EP broadcasts her distinctive sound and exquisite musicality. She blissfully merges sweetness and command into cover and original songs like "Gem of A Man" and her rendition of "Blessed Assurance". This EP is bound to leave its mark in the gospel, jazz and R&B scene, as will the virtuous woman herself, Queen AndreYAH Black.
