Who Is Tiana Major9?

Tiana Thomas-Ambersley, who goes by Tiana Major9 professionally, said she "can't wait" to perform this weekend alongside this "amazjng lineup."

The British singer-songwriter grew up in a Jamaican household in Newham, London. Thomas-Ambersley started singing gospel music in church from the age of 5, and she gained local recognition when she made it to the finals of the MOBOs UnSung competition.

She got the name "Major9" from the major ninth chord, which is a chord predominantly found in jazz. Thomas-Ambersley is influenced by the genre, but her music is a mixture of R&B, soul, and reggae as well.

The 26-year-old was nominated for Best R&B Song at the Grammy Awards in 2021 for her song "Collide", which is totally dreamy. You may also recognise Tiana's silky smooth voice from Stormzy's song "Rainfall", which she sings backing vocals on.
