   About Zili Misik
Zili music bridges cultures, generations, and continents. With captivating sounds that evoke the African continent, zili retraces routes of forced exile and cultural resistance through diasporic rhythm and song. Powerful Haitian, Brazilian and West African rhythms infuse zili’s original creations and traditional folksongs, while zili inspires its audiences to dance and even teaches them how. Reconnecting Haitian mizik rasin, jazz, roots reggae, samba, Cuban son, and neo soul, zili honors its influences while creating a sound that is uniquely its own. All female, zili takes its name from Haitian spiritual entity, Ezili, who is envisaged as mother, lover, and warrior. Zili’s songs are sensual, political, self-reflective, positive, and invoke love. Zili’s lyrics glide seamlessly from English to Kreyòl to Portuguese to Spanish, spinning tales and visions of lives lived and yet to be.

ZILI IS SPOTLIGHT ARTIST on www.sonicbids.com/zili!! JULY 16th on!!

Dear Zilli Misik,

As I listen to the new songs and tears begin to fall and my heart wells.

I give thanks that I have not become numb to the truths and music you give.

Thank you for helping keep us human

Saw and adored you all in York, PA as part of the Penn State tour. Noticed that the trumpet player (I believe it was Nicole?) isn't a regular part of your group. Loved her and wish there was a link to her and maybe other guest artist's you've worked with.

Hey Zilimisikers! Good luck on the upcoming shows!

I haven't called Roy Wooten yet, because I have to formulate some things first, so we can have some scientific discussion and maybe get somewhere with that (rather than just talking).

You are going to be included in this science aspect since you are spanning a few contents and hence your work contains a LOT of information (hidden in a way in those frequencies, but also in the words). Not many artists have this. We can even write a computer program to determine how much information the music contains. You would score high (as would Beatles, Regina Spektor, Bela Fleck & the Flecktones, and people of this sort). Information here is concerete math term.

Have fun!

I'll call him soon and let you girls know how it goes!

Peace and Love,

Vladi
