A Tribute to the Music of Aretha Franklin & Gladys Knight

BRENCORE Entertainment Presents “A Tribute to the Music of Aretha Franklin and Gladys Knight” at GRACES Event Center. Ameya Taylor will perform some of Aretha and Gladys favorite hits of all time. Backed by the BRENCORE ALLSTARS, this will be an amazing concert.

“Ameya” born Lakeisha Taylor, September 8, in Anne Arundel County, MD has subsequently been a singer, performer, songwriter and music teacher for many years. Ameya has had an unfailing love for all genres of music performing for her family at gatherings, singing for a host of church ministries and classical choirs in grade school, high school and college.

Ameya has won competitions such as the “Search For The Kids” talent competition(winning first place alongside 2 of her siblings), “The Apollo” in Harlem, NY winning second place. Ameya was a contestant on the “American Idol” season 4 alongside Carrie Underwood. Ameya has also performed on the “I Am Strong” military tour which was an amazing and enjoyable experience.

For over 2 1/2 decades, Ameya has performed/ freelanced/recorded with numerous artists such as Leigh Jones and various bands such as Exquisite Band, Redfootz and the Red Sessions, Little Benny and the Masters, Obsession Band, Brencore Entertainment(just shy of 15 years) and a host of other units on numerous stages, but her greatest achievement is birthing her 8 year- old son Keyon.

Ameya is currently performing throughout the DMV and abroad, teaching our future young scholars(for 22 years) and songwriting/recording for solo projects scheduled to drop this year.
