About the Show

A soul-stirring celebration of communal love, where music becomes a bridge between generations, genres, and hearts.

Let Love Lead is Electric Root’s newest production: an immersive, emotionally rich concert led by acclaimed vocalists Brianna Thomas, C. Anthony Bryant, and Charenee Wade. With a repertoire of beloved songs by Nina Simone, Aretha Franklin, Donny Hathaway, and more, the show transforms the stage into a space of warmth, welcome, and shared spirit.

What Sets It Apart

• Communal Love in Action: More than a concert, Let Love Lead invites audiences into a shared circle of joy, reflection, and belonging.

• Strategic Partnership: With every booking, Electric Root consults directly with your team through our Radical Hospitality method. We work side by side with you to design entry points for new and diverse audiences, ensuring the concert reflects and uplifts your community.

• Recognizable, Resonant Repertoire: Beloved classics performed with fresh artistry connect across generations and cultures, sparking both familiarity and discovery.

• World-Class Talent + Support: Beyond the singers, you gain a production and engagement team — educators, creators, and specialists — who maximize artistic, digital, and cultural touchpoints.

Track Record of Success

Following the two-year national tour of The Sound of (Black) Music — named Best of Theater 2021 by The New York Times, with performances at Lincoln Center, Stanford Live, Strathmore, The Green Music Center, and more — Let Love Lead premiered at The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s MetLiveArts series (Feb 2025) to a near capacity audience.
