Almost 4 years after moving overseas, the Philippines’ Queen of Soul Jaya is set to reunite with her Filipino fans as she marks her homecoming with a grand concert, “Jaya All Hits,” set to stage on September 14 at the New Frontier Theater.
Promising to take the audience to a nostalgic feeling with her iconic masterpieces,”Jaya All Hits” will be an extraordinary night of soulful emotions and legendary performances from Jaya herself, under the direction of premier concerts and events director John Prats, and produced by Cornerstone Concerts, L-Squared Productions PH, and CAL Studios.
The country’s Queen of Soul expressed her excitement for her anticipated homecoming, specifically mentioning missing the people and the nature of her work in the Philippines. “I missed the co-artists, makeup and hair people, friends and production people that not only makes my job pure joy but I missed the daily chika and learnings,” Jaya shared, recalling her experiences years ago before migrating to the US. “We have one another to really lean on and when we need to unload and talk stories, you would be so shocked to know what comes out of our mouths—just kidding, but not really,” she added.
Meanwhile, Jaya is thrilled to be staging her homecoming concert in September, realizing all the changes that happened throughout the years of not being in the country. “This homecoming concert is quite exciting and emotional for me. Many of my beloved and respected mentors and friends have passed away, and the music landscape has changed since I last was in the Philippines,” she shared, then revealing personal changes she had to go through. “I have also changed in many ways when it comes to my craft. At 55 years old, I hope that you will still enjoy my song choices and delivery, though somewhat mature but heartfelt.”
Inviting her fans to a reunion at “Jaya All Hits,” the country’s Queen of Soul expressed her gratitude and excitement to be performing in front of the Filipino audience once again. “I am filled with excitement to see my listeners and show them once again that I am still here, doing what I love and using the blessings that God has truly willed for me,” she expressed, promising a night of love and music. “ Let’s make September 14 our night together and fill it with love, stories and encouragement, which I know all of us need, and thank you in advance for your love and support!”
