Join us Wednesday, May 28th as Miko Marks headlines Respect!, JusticeAid’s benefit concert at City Winery in New York City to benefit our 2025 grantee partner Pregnancy Justice. The evening will feature several Grammy winning and nominated artists, and weave together multiple musical genres to celebrate female musicians, songwriting, and empowerment. Tickets are on sale now!
I’m not just one genre. I love everything. If I can pull from different influences and make a big gumbo, that’s what I’m going to do. As artists, we need to stir the pot with more and more ingredients—when we do, it elevates us all.

This song “takes me back to my gospel, blues and country roots. As the world keeps changing faster and faster, there’s a piece of the past that we should always hold onto to keep us grounded and carry us forward.” —Miko Marks
