Smith will debut what should have been her touring live set to promote new album – an “expression of love for electricity” – The Mosaic of Transformation (Ghostly International) during this one-off worldwide streaming performance on Thursday, Aug. 13, at 9:30 p.m.
“It has been challenging to accept that I may not play the live set I prepared for my most recent album The Mosaic of Transformation for a long time, said Smith on Facebook.
“Instead I have decided to create a virtual performance so it can still be shared. I’m sorry I can’t be there in person … live performance has always been such a special form of connection. I have hope that new ways of connecting will continue to grow.”
Tickets for this event are $15 and can be purchased here.
Proceeds from the event will go towards the Black Trans Femmes in the Arts and local affiliates.
