About the Artist

Wifty Bangura is a multifaceted creative specializing in sound healing. Not only is she a poet whose words are both ethereal and entrancing, she’s also a versatile veteran with 6 years of training as a classical vocalist and 13 years of performing experience. Wifty got her start studying classical voice at Baltimore School for the Arts High School. Her Sierra Leonean roots have a big influence on her music as she grew up listening to West African reggae. Along with being a musician, Wifty has dedicated part of her life to teaching voice and music theory, and to the development of young Black artists. “My goal as a creative is to help people feel like it’s okay to be uncomfortable in their growth because it’s normal. I’m growing along with everyone else. My music isn’t just a reflection of me. It is me. The center.”
