Vibe with Ayanna & Zahria

About this event

Vibe with Ayanna & Zahria brings together sound curator and DJ Ayanna Cooper Vasquez and saxophonist and bandleader Zahria Sims for a live collaboration that sits at the intersection of house music and jazz. Ayanna is a New Orleans and Milwaukee-based DJ whose sets draw from house, disco, Afro-Latin rhythms, and globally inspired sounds, built around deep grooves and soulful, unhurried programming. Zahria Sims is a Baton Rouge native now rooted in New Orleans and founder of the Zahria Sims Collective, whose layered saxophone melodies and looped textures bring a live jazz voice to Ayanna's DJ sets. A Loyola University jazz graduate, Sims' credits include opening slots for Kenny Garrett and Arturo Sandoval, a recording with Nicholas Payton, and a 2025 debut EP. The two have developed their collaborative format through regular performances at 3oneone6, a creative collective and art space on St. Claude Avenue. Full bar on-site. No check-in required. Entry is free, with standing room and some seating at first come, first serve basis. Doors open at 8 pm. Join us in Good Measure. Come for the music. Stay for the night.
