In honour of Black History Month, Hugh’s Room Live presents an evening celebrating the
deep influence of Black history on urban music. This special night brings together Toronto
singer Robert Ball, JUNO Award–winning urban artist Aphrose, and Quisha Wint,
for a powerful and diverse musical experience. Rooted in soul, rhythm, and
storytelling, the evening highlights how Black musical traditions continue to shape contemporary
urban sound across genres and voices. Expect compelling performances, rich musicality, and a
night that honours history while embracing the present.
Robert Ball: Robert Ball’s sound spans soul, neo-soul, jazz, and easy listening. He has it all: a
global audience; an extensive list of tour dates; numerous artist collaborations; and many live
broadcast appearances! His 18-year career has led him to his own brand of music - delicately
tuned but also inspirational.
Aphrose: Aphrose is a powerful presence in Canada's music scene, capturing the heart of R&B
and neo-soul. Recently nominated for a 2025 JUNO Award in the Adult Contemporary Album of
the Year category for her album Roses, it's evident that she's on a path to great success.
