Wright is an American singer, songwriter, and musician whose work blends elements of jazz, gospel, blues, and soul. Her vocal style is often described as rich and emotive, drawing comparisons to artists like Nina Simone and Billie Holiday while maintaining a distinctly contemporary feel. She is known for both original compositions and interpretations of songs by a diverse range of artists.

Martinskirche (St. Martin's Church) is one of Basel’s three main historical churches. Its origins trace back to the Early Middle Ages, with the current building largely constructed between 1225 and 1460 during the High Gothic period. The church stands on a hill overlooking the city center and features distinctive red sandstone architecture. Notably, its tower is one of Basel’s most prominent landmarks. Over time, Martinskirche has undergone several renovations but retains significant portions of its medieval structure including stained glass windows dating from the 14th century. Today it functions as a Protestant church within the Church of Basel-Stadt and also serves as a venue for concerts due to its excellent acoustics.
