Kehlani appears at Blue Note Summer Sessions

Kehlani appears at Blue Note Summer Sessions at the Meritage Resort on Thursday, July 17, at 7 p.m. Kehlani Ashley Parrish is an American singer, songwriter and dancer who mixes contemporary R&B with melodies and references to past hits. Originally from Oakland, Kehlani was a member of the teen pop group PopLyfe. Their debut mixtape, Cloud 19, was named one of Complex’s “50 Best Albums of 2014.” Some say the songs on Kehlani’s album Crash were written for live performances, giving them a spontaneous feel.  Meritage Resort, 850 Bordeaux Way, Napa, www.bluenotejazz.com/napa
