Featuring Adé A. Cônnére

by Christine Bryant Cohen, marketing & creative director

Back after a very long, very strange 12 months, it’s Adé A. Cônnére! You may recall meeting her via our blog last year, #HowIHashtag: Meet Adé.

Adé sings, writes songs, acts, and performs extraordinary work across the stages of Seattle and beyond. And she has a live show coming up with Bijoux, a brand-new disco duo project, with Artists Behind Glass:

“Excited about our very first live in person show as Bijoux! We will be serving up some Disco delights for the Artists behind Glass Series at Vermilion! A great way for artists to perform live and still socially distance. Friday April 16th at 7pm!”

And here’s where you can find Adé A Cônnére on Facebook, on Instagram as @adeahmir, and on Twitter as @adeacious4.


How has your cannabis consumption changed over the last year during COVID sheltering in place? 

I have been doing more edibles.

 What’s your current favorite strain? 

I don’t really have a favorite strain.

 

What inspires your creativity?  

I get inspired by many different things — it can come from anywhere.

 

Do you have any new projects that you’d like to promote to our readers?

I have a new band called Bijoux — we’re a disco duo. Right now, we’re working on an album and will be doing a show at Vermilion on April 16th.

When it’s safe to leave home, what’s first on your list to do out in the world? First live show, etc.?

I’d like to go dancing.

If you were a strain, what would you name yourself?

Adecious, like audacious.
