Music – Los Angeles

With an air of gently sophisticated elegance, LA-native singer-songwriter Pontea is preparing to make her mark as a unique and formidable up-and-coming solo performance artist. Her self-penned works are colored with elements of an R&B feel along with a soulfully intense yet catchy pop delivery. No stranger to the live performance scene in southern California, her vibrantly rich vocals and keys driven acoustic-electro hybrid sound speaks to the new generation of singer-songwriters such as Ed Sheeran, Tori Kelly, and ZZ Ward. A very special evening is planned on Friday, May 22 at RAW to celebrate the soft release of her first publicly released originals with her self titled and self produced EP, An Introduction. Expect a bold and compelling performance that might even feature some spontaneous beat boxing, which Pontea has been known to engage her audiences with from time to time. If you purchase a ticket through her link, you\'ll received a special signed copy of her limited release EP at the show. For more information and links to her music, go to www.iampontea.com
