​Our friend Chandra Currelley will be performing at the City Winery Atlanta on April 19, 2020.
​You probably recognize Chandra as Ms. V. in Tyler Perry’s “FOR BETTER OR WORSE” and  in the #1 box office movie, "DIARY OF A MAD  BLACK WOMAN " playing herself in the nightclub Chandra’s. Also starring as "Shirley" in "Madea’s Big Happy Family" the stage play.  Who  can forget her show stopping performance  as Loretta in KANDI BURRESS’s  (The Real Housewives of Atlanta) "A Mother's Love” and the movie Madea’s Big Happy Family as the choir soloist, Sister Laura.  CHANDRA is the former lead singer of  The legendary recording group The S.O.S. Band, replacing the original lead singer. 

​The film is set in Richmond Virginia, the former seat of the confederacy, where the legacy of systemic racism, a spiraling opioid crisis, generational poverty, and a lack of mental health services have entrapped many of its citizens in a cycle of incarceration, making the city itself a unique case study for rising recidivism rates in the U.S. at large. With the U.S. locking up more of its citizens per capita than any other nation on the planet, the music of the film serves as rare testimony to the raw and messy truth behind the criminal justice system’s revolving door.
