Ethiopian born Wayna has had an interesting musical career starting when she was quite small. An accomplished performer and songwriter she has recorded a considerable number of songs spanning three albums. A graduate of the University of Maryland she began working as writer for the Clinton Administration in the 1990s but soon realised her true path was as a singer/songwriter. (See Bio link further on for a detailed account). Today's featured is taken from her second album Higher Ground (2008) and is the opening track, Midnight Rendezvous. The link to song is in the album cover.
Yes, it's a short track but it's still worth the hearing. The CD of Higher Ground now seems to be limited to Amazon U.S. and CD Baby at good prices. The only remaining item in the UK (at the time of writing) is priced at a ludicrous £101 (Amazon UK) and is a used item. Available as a download on iTunes and other sources too. More of her recordings can be found on Myspace . Worth some time exploring her work. Click on each of the photos below to read more about her and what she has accomplished as a performer.
