On Wednesday, October 1st, the Community Center for the Performing Arts proudly welcomes Mon Rovia to the WOW Hall.
I’m Mon, born in Monrovia, Liberia. My life can be summed up by being born into a civil war, escaping the life of a child soldier, and being rescued by the hands of missionaries. I spent a lot of my developmental years living in a variety of places, shaped by a number of life experiences. Layered on top of all of this is the assimilation I felt being a transracially adopted refugee. My music, in a nutshell, is a culmination of these experiences — blended with the empathy I feel for the experiences of others. The mission of my music is simple: to heal with others — with every nation and tongue, in due time.
Mon Rovîa is partnering with PLUS1 for his upcoming tour. $1.00 per ticket is to be added on top of every ticket sold, with the proceeds going to charity. Olivia and Claire with PLUS1 will be reaching out directly to your box office to coordinate when I send out formal confirmation letters, but please include the following somewhere on your ticketing page: Mon Rovîa has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 per ticket goes to supporting Hurricane Helene relief in partnership with Habitat for Humanity of TN. Habitat for Humanity is a global nonprofit organization dedicated to building and improving homes for families in need. As a local affiliate, Habitat for Humanity of Tennessee is actively responding to the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. While immediate emergency response is ongoing, Habitat for Humanity’s primary role will be in the long-term recovery of disaster-stricken communities.
