WITNESS- ALBUM TOUR
SHARMI SURIANARAIN presents 8 new songs from her forthcoming album WITNESS responding to a year of great tumult and transformation at both the personal and the political level.
SHARMI uses soul rhythm poetry jazz and blues to take you on a journey from despair through to redemption knowing that the ultimate gift through the challenging times is to bear witness to it all.
The ultimate touchstone of friendship is witness. To have walked with them and to have believed in them and accompanied them however long or short. – David Whyte
