Tiera Kennedy has been busy blazing a vibrant musical trail all her own, lining it with the familiar and inviting sounds of R&B, country, and gospel. You’ll hear her represented on Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter, find her fresh from touring with her mentor Shania Twain, and promoting her recently (and independently) released LP Rooted. Next stop, Stagecoach! But not before she hits KCRW with a Guest Selector set of five songs that inspired her as she was getting Rooted ready for the world.
Tiera Kennedy’s KCRW Guest Selects:
“Seasons” – Madison Ryann Ward
“1 + 1” – Beyoncé
“Any Man of Mine” – Shania Twain
“Are You That Somebody” – Aaliyah
