Musical Guest
Etheria—meaning “a theory of someone who heals and loves everything and everyone they touch”—is more than an artist; she’s a movement. A Neo-soul, R&B, and Hip-Hop powerhouse, she’s a songstress, songwriter, rapper, and self-taught pianist on a mission to spread love, healing, and empowerment worldwide. Hailing from Rockaway to Newark, Etheria has performed since childhood, captivating audiences at shows from intimate open mics to packed events. Despite being a rising star, she remains grounded, creating music that uplifts and connects people. With a few releases and collaborations, she’s already proven it’s about impact, not numbers. Etheria isn’t just a star in the making - she’s a human force, and her light is impossible to ignore.
