Shakura S’Aida knows no boundaries with new disc Time

posted by Chris Martin on May 14, 2012

The third release for Toronto-based blues singer-songwriter Shakura S’Aida is called Time. It is a two-CD set with one disc devoted to rock and soul and the second disc devoted to the blues.

Over the past 25 years, S’Aida has developed a career by virtue of diversity. Music, theatre, film, television, writing, recording and performing have all featured prominently in her arsenal of talents. Though S’Aida’s first release, Blueprint, showcased her love of ’40s and ’50s blues, Time speaks more to the core of who she is musically: a little bit of everything.

AUDIO CLIPI spoke with S’Aida about her choice to release a record with such a broad spectrum of music.

Time is the first release for S’Aida on Canada’s Electro-Fi Records. She will be promoting the disc across western Canada this summer.

From the Saturday Night Blues 25th anniversary concert, here is Shakura S'Aida with Donna Grantis and the Colin James Band performing her composition, "GeeChee Woman."
