Seattle soul singer and Black Auntie, Adra Boo, walks through walls. While some in the age look to construct boxes for others, Boo flouts these efforts, working to inspire through interconnectivity, sacrifice and, of course, a touch of sweetness.

Formerly known in the Emerald City as one half of the electro-funk duo, Fly Moon Royalty, which has shared stages with the likes of Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings, Robert Glasper, and Macklemore, Boo also performs regularly as a featured singer for musicians like Erik Blood, Vox Mod, Massy Ferguson, and the Grammy Award-winning composer and Seattle native, Andrew Joslyn. Currently, she is a member of Seattle's new wave noir band, Hotels, and doing more and more solo exploration, further proving not even the sky is the limit. Boo is also the creator of #BlackHotSunday, events and showcases focused on creating space for Black/Black-fronted bands and musicians, and Black vendors, putting Blackness to the front!

Boo also holds a place in the 2019 Honorary Westminster Daddy Hall of Fame, and is a member of both SimonePin Productions, a technical dance and burlesque company owned by Women of Color, as well as Dark Diamonds Burlesque, and all POC burlesque troupe based in Seattle.

When not singing, however, Boo works in her community in multiple facets, including, but not limited to her current seat as a City of Seattle Music Commissioner, previously holding a board seat with the Pacific Northwest Grammy Chapter, and as the former director of Rain City Rock Camp’s Adult Rock Camp, energizing individuals of marginalized genders towards living their best lives, musically and beyond. Boo is also a regular emcee for summer music festivals, burlesque and cabaret, and a former festival correspondent for the award-winning alternative weekly, The Stranger.

A veteran performer on a myriad of stages, Boo has been compared to timeless musicians like Aretha Franklin and Tina Turner, unafraid to ruffle feathers or rouse would-be audiences. And while all of these efforts cause her to stand out in the city, it’s her work as an artistic liaison that has made her a local legend.

Formerly of Fly Moon Royalty: "They made HELLA magic!"

“One of the more adventurous duos from the fertile 206 hip-hop scene, Fly Moon Royalty’s charismatic DJ Action Jackson and front woman Adra Boo mix soulful beats and organic-sounding electronica into a mix of modern R&B that’s intelligent, erotic and utterly addictive.” 
-City Arts Magazine

"Bringing their by-now signature vocal prowess to a beat that could go 8 rounds with the Clipse' "Grindin", "Step Hard" is the ultimate warning shot that FMR is back in the arena."

“The best way to explain their sound is to imagine if Beth Ditto and Erykah Badu had a baby, and that baby grew up and produced a record with Q-Tip.”
