2015 was my sixth proper year going out to see live music. Although I always try to keep some sort of live music log, I'm still muddy on the actual number of shows I saw this year.

Like the
soul singers of the past, her music combines elements of Gospel, R&B, and
Jazz, but what keeps her unclassifiable is her personal technique of impelling
the hearts of audiences with her voice. In 2014, she sang her way into
the hearts of America on ABC’s Rising Star. On the day that I spoke with Shameia about her music, I recall her personality being as warm as her vocals. Her smile illuminated the room and she was completely humble, yet confident, in her musical abilities. Shortly into the conversation, I recognized her aspiration to capture the emotions of every audience that she stands in front of. “I believe in my voice and I believe that I have something to offer that no one else does”, says Shameia. Indeed, she has a special gift and it is considerably identifiable whether she is singing background vocals for legendary soul artists like Angie Stone, accompanying gospel singers like Vashawn Mitchell, or performing her original music.
