“I’m very excited and I feel like I can learn a lot just from watching Jonathan Butler play. I am set to thrill my growing fans in this show. You can also, expect to see someone having as much fun as possible on stage. I might be very nervous, but at the same time I’m excited to share some of my music for the first time. I plan to let go and just enjoy sharing positive energy with my audience. I hope they come ready to smile”

Speaking on the influence of Afro Jazz music to the new generation, A’rese said:  “I think all music influences culture. Even if it’s not a mainstream genre, it is still an important part of our identity as Africans. This is one show that’s meant to rekindle that feeling of cultural identity.”
