Yaniza Family Concert

Ages 3 and up

Join singer-songwriter Yaniza and friends as she performs joyful pop melodies and inspiring lyrics spreading positivity with her acoustic guitar and ukulele. Bringing vibrant energy into every performance, Yaniza shares original songs including “Fly Away (Free Bird),” “Grateful,” and “Happiness” about life lessons and her diverse background of being Dominican, Black, and Jewish.

Yaniza initially grew her fanbase by posting acoustic covers of pop songs on YouTube, which have garnered over 500,000 views combined. Listeners liken her vibes to that of Corinne Bailey Rae and Colbie Caillat. Following two studio albums, her first single, “Fly Away (Free Bird),” quickly amassed hundreds of thousands of streams across platforms. Yaniza has performed at acclaimed live music venues around the city, including Rockwood Music Hall, Mercury Lounge, and guest appearances at B.B. King’s and Irving Plaza. She was named Artist of the Month twice at The Bitter End, a semi-finalist in the Celebration of Music Contest in 2019, and in the NY Coffee Music Project Competition in 2017. In between gigging, writing, and recording music, Yaniza doubles as a passionate educator. After teaching and working with children for 15+ years and earning a master’s degree in early childhood education from Columbia University in 2020, she started her own business teaching kids ukulele and voice lessons, which remains in high demand. As Yaniza continues to inspire people through music & education, she is actively performing and writing new bops with the goal of encouraging listeners to find joy in everyday life.

Concert tickets are required for both adults and children.
