First Friday at First with Lori Williams

https://firstchurchatl.org/first-friday-2024/

“People who haven’t heard Lori Williams sing will never forget her once they do. Her vocal skills have been compared to Maysa, Sade, Nancy Wilson, and Dianne Reeves. A music critic calls her voice “stunning, supple, subtle, sumptuous, and soulful.” As a musician, she is much more than a vocalist. She is an educator, producer, and songwriter, among other things.”
