       █      flows through the underground of              █
       █      main-street music and the passion             █
       █      expressed in her live performances shed       █
       █      some light on the original roots of           █
       █      soul-a music of life's lessons. Indeed,       █
       █      the addictive vocal arrangements of           █
       █      Alana DaCosta have an impact on her           █
       █      audience. Her style of singing is             █
       █      controlled, captivating and                   █
       █      inspirational. Her gift of song opens         █
       █      the minds of her listeners and arouses a      █
       █      new depth of soul music. Her distinctive      █
       █      sound extends beyond boundaries as she        █
       █      consistently blends nu-soul with grooves      █
       █      and vibes of hip-hop, reggae, jazz, and       █
       █      a drop of funk.                               █
       █                                                    █
       █      Born in Bronx, New York, to Jamaican          █
       █      parents, Alana DaCosta, as a toddler          █
       █      would hum the tunes of singers ranging        █
       █      from Gregory Isaac to Donna Summer.           █
       █      Alana's mother would often encourage her      █
       █      only child to entertain herself with her      █
       █      "most favorite toy" in their home, her        █
       █      mother's turntable. Alana's exposure to       █
       █      various musical genres at a young age         █
       █      influenced her singing and songwriting        █
       █      styles. She began her musical endeavors       █
       █      at the early age of 7, performing in          █
       █      school plays, charity events and talents      █
       █      shows. By the time she was ten, Alana         █
       █      began writing poetry, competing in            █
       █      oratorical contests, and playing the          █
       █      trumpet in a jazz and concert band. Two       █
       █      years later, she enrolled at the Dillard      █
       █      Center of the Performing Arts in Fort         █
       █      Lauderdale, Florida; where she excelled       █
       █      in her chosen track of voice and              █
       █      instrumental training. As a student,          █

       █      strong passion for helping others             █

       █      Psychology as well as Music, with a           █
       █      concentration in Voice and Jazz studies.      █

       █      and performed throughout the Baltimore        █

       █      touch the minds, hearts and souls of          █
       █      people across the world, and will             █
