ACL 2021: Serena Isioma

Sunday at 1pm.  Three acts on at this time. None of which I recognize.  First is a 20 year-old singer-songwriter from Chicago.  American Songwriter says their music is "in the same conversation with the likes of Frank Ocean, Solange Knowles and Janelle Monae."  It also says "Somewhere between the bleeding edge of modern R&B and the anti-establishment spirit of classic indie pop exists the music of Serena Isioma."

This article titled "Serena Isioma Is the Nonbinary Rockstar Shaking Up Bedroom Pop" says their influence is fellow Chicago rapper Tyler, the Creator.

Nice sound.
