The CMPND

Join us this Saturday, June 14th at 3:30 PM at CMPND for a special afternoon of live music, and a conversation with the talented Zara at Soul Sessions WS

Zara is a 19-year old Music and Marketing student at the University of North Carolina Greensboro.

She’s been performing professionally with her guitar all around North Carolina for the past few years. From bars and clubs to festivals and even the beach, she plays mainly country and pop music but loves to throw in a few wildcards here and there.

Her performance style is really interactive as she enjoys engaging the audience with humorous stories and coversation, even taking song requests when possible. Connecting with the crowd in this way strengthens her musical reach.

📍CMPND – Winston-Salem
🕞 Doors open at 3:00 PM | Show starts at 3:30 PM
