JEWISH COMMUNAL SINGING FOR HEALING AND LIBERATION
Let My People Sing! is a cultural project expanding the ancient and transformative practice of Jewish communal singing. We gather in multi-racial, multicultural and genderful Jewish community, uplifting songs and leaders historically and ongoingly pushed to the margins. Together, we transmit and reclaim diasporic Jewish singing traditions, celebrate original music emerging from our communities, and create heart-centered gatherings where we can all be leaders and learners of song.

Tempest has emerged as a distinct voice in the West Coast  Alt-R&B scene, captivating audiences with her blend of raw vulnerability. Her musical journey began with an introspective cover of Drake’s  "Young Playa Footage," setting a precedent for follow up singles  like “Sorry To Say” and “Not The Same.” Each song is a testament to her ability to articulate deep emotions. 

Raised in Long Beach, she spent 2020 refining her sound, drawing from a broad spectrum of musical influences. While the music industry shut down, Tempest reflects on this period as a monumental moment of artistic growth. In her last release, Tempest collaborated with Naomi Wild on the track “So Gone” which delves into the nuanced emotions of modern dating, particularly the experience of being ghosted. 

This year Tempest has been teasing the release of an upcoming single, "Cha Cha Freestyle," set for release on June 21st. Promising to be a continuation of her emotive journey, "Cha Cha Freestyle" is set to cement Tempest's place as a dynamic and influential voice in today’s Alt-R&B scene.
