Seraiah Nicole Brings Soulful Vibes to South Jazz Kitchen in Philly

Philadelphia’s live music scene is alive and well, and Seraiah Nicole is a name you need to know. The singer-songwriter took the stage at South Jazz Kitchen last night for another sold-out, soul-infused performance that left the audience captivated from the first note to the last. With Southern-inspired cuisine in one room and a world-class jazz experience in the other, South set the perfect stage for a night where music, culture, and community came together.

Backed by an all-star band, including Dan Rouse (@drouse) on keys, Sunny Dee (@sunnydeedrumma) on drums, and Tim Ragsdale (@timonbass_) on bass. Supporting her powerhouse vocals were Dise Diasonama (@disemusic) and Maya Belardo (@mayabelardo) weaving harmonies that wrapped around the room like a warm hug.

Seraiah’s Live Show Feels Like Family

One thing about a Seraiah Nicole concert—by the time you leave, you’ll feel like family. Her set was an emotional journey, effortlessly moving between soul-stirring originals and reimagined classics. Standouts of the night included her stunning takes on "At Last" and "Over the Rainbow," each performed with the kind of passion that makes you hear the lyrics in a whole new way. You could feel her gospel roots shining through every note, creating an atmosphere that felt as warm and welcoming as a Sunday service or a family gathering.

But it’s more than just the music—it’s the way Seraiah connects with her audience. Between songs, she shares personal stories, cracks jokes, and makes it feel like she’s singing directly to you. There’s an authenticity to her delivery, a rawness that reminds you that great music is not just only about how great one sings but it’s about making people feel something real. Whether you walked in alone or with friends, by the end of the night, you were swaying, singing, and vibing like long-lost cousins at a cookout.

If you’re looking for a live music experience in Philly that blends soul, jazz, and genuine connection, Seraiah Nicole is an artist you need to follow. Her shows sell out fast—so grab your tickets early and prepare for a night you won’t forget.
