  • SPLENDID MIND LIVE SESSION: TANGELA with DJ set by STH MEMPHIS JEFF

    Crosstown Arts, The Green Room 1350 Concourse Ave., Suite 280, Memphis, TN, United States

    TANGELA is the glittery finish to a masterfully crafted collage. She glows, sparkles, and shines wherever she is present. A fusion of love & artistic vision, TANGELA has dibble-dabbled in The Arts since she was a toddler— weaving in & out of painting classes, bands, theatrical outfits & dance troupes, intent on discovering her most magical talents. Memphis music legends baptized and verified TANGELA at a young age, as she studied under the tutelage of soul music icons at the city’s STAX Academy of Music. The spirit of Memphis — the tension, hustle, grind, grit, and flair — are evident in the Berklee College of Music graduate’s products.
