Yesterday we published Charly Lowry's Music at the Mansion which features her performing with a team of talented North Carolina musicians including Alexis Raeana Jones. Last year the vocal and musical talents of Alexis and her fellow Music at the Mansion performer Brandon McClean (Kyng Bea) awarded them a trip to Los Angeles to audition for a spot on American Idol.
In 2015 Alexis was crowned Miss Lumbee, an award given during an annual pageant held during Lumbee Homecoming, a summer event featuring a powwow, parade and community events every July. Like Charly, Alexis is known for proudly representing the Lumbee tribe through her musical and professional work.
Last month, a video of Alexis and Charly singing The Star Spangled Banner at UNC-Pembroke's Moonlight Madness went viral. Catch it below!
