As the host of the Media Circus podcast, I had the pleasure of interviewing the incredibly talented Nahzarah Zaire in a recent episode. Nahzarah is a rising star in the music industry, known for her unique blend of country, bluegrass, and folk music. In the episode, Nahzarah shared her journey into the music scene, highlighting her deep connection to these genres and the influence of her upbringing as a pastor's kid.
We delved into the nuances of country, bluegrass, and folk music, with Nahzarah providing insights on how to differentiate between the genres based on lyrics, feel, and instrumentation. She also shared her experience as a Black artist in the country music industry, emphasizing the importance of inclusivity and community among artists of color.
Nahzarah discussed her upcoming performances in Nashville, including a show at Tin Roof on Broadway and the Slimming Huskies Unplugged music series at the Analog at the Hutton Hotel. She expressed her excitement for these events and encouraged listeners to come out and support artists of color in the country music scene.
We also had the opportunity to listen to a snippet of Nahzarah's song "Oh Friend," featuring Michael B. Witt, showcasing her soulful and captivating voice. Nahzarah shared the inspiration behind the song, which conveys a message of support and companionship during challenging times.
Throughout the episode, Nahzarah's passion for music and her commitment to building a supportive community for artists of color shone through. As the host, I was inspired by Nahzarah's talent and dedication to her craft, and I encouraged listeners to follow her on social media, stream her music, and attend her live shows to experience her artistry firsthand.
Overall, the episode with Nahzarah Zaire was a celebration of music, diversity, and the power of community in the entertainment industry. Nahzarah's story and music left a lasting impression, and I look forward to seeing her continue to make waves in the country music scene.
