Amagansett, NY (July 22, 2025) — The Soho Sessions returns to the Hamptons with a rare, intimate performance by Grammy Award-winning artist Maren Morris, joined by genre-defying powerhouse Yola, at the iconic Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett on August 25, 2025. While The Soho Sessions is typically an invitation-only music series held at an elegantly intimate loft in New York City’s SoHo neighborhood, this special Hamptons edition opens its doors to the public for one night only—offering an unforgettable chance to experience two of music’s most compelling voices in an iconic setting.
Morris has earned critical and commercial acclaim for her boundary-pushing sound, blending country, soul, and pop with undeniable lyrical power. Known for chart-topping hits like “The Middle,” “My Church,” and “Circles Around This Town,” Morris continues to cement her reputation as one of the most exciting artists of her generation. Her latest album, D R E A M S I C L E (2025), marks an introspective and cohesive chapter—blending synth-pop, acoustic balladry, and country-pop into an emotionally resonant journey.
The evening will also feature a special guest performance by genre-defying vocalist and songwriter Yola, fresh off the release of her high-octane new single, “Amazing,” which draws on progressive R&B, rock, and soulful pop. Hailed by BET as “a one-of-one” and praised for her powerhouse vocals, Yola brings her singular sound and presence to this intimate Hamptons stage.
This special event will support Music Will, the largest nonprofit music education program for schools in the United States. Through its innovative modern band curriculum, Music Will expands student participation in school music programs and helps drive long-term academic, social, and emotional growth. The organization aims to reach 10 million students annually through its nationally scaled programming by 2030.
This Hamptons edition of The Soho Sessions is sponsored by The FLAG Art Foundation, a New York City-based nonprofit exhibition space that mounts thematic contemporary art exhibitions centering on emerging and established artists from around the globe. FLAG was founded 18 years ago by Investor and philanthropists Glenn and Amanda Fuhrman.
Doors will open at 7:30 PM for the general public, with the show beginning at 8:30 PM. Tickets are on sale here.
As with every edition, The Soho Sessions continues its mission of using live music to drive meaningful change. The series is produced by RWE Partners, founded by Greg Williamson and Nicole Rechter, and has featured standout performances from artists like Paul Simon, Kate Hudson, Marcus King, Gary Clark Jr., Amos Lee, Brittney Spencer, and Warren Haynes, among others. The Soho Sessions has supported causes ranging from mental health and medical research to food insecurity and gun safety. Since its inception, RWE Partners has raised more than $75 million through affiliated events over the past decade.
This August’s performance marks a return to Stephen Talkhouse for The Soho Sessions, following last summer’s sold-out show with Marcus King. Known for its rich musical legacy and small-club charm, Talkhouse offers the perfect backdrop for this uniquely intimate concert experience with Morris.
“The magic of The Soho Sessions has always been about creating something unforgettable — extraordinary artists, intimate settings, and a sense of purpose,” said Williamson. “To bring that spirit back to Stephen Talkhouse with two singular voices like Maren Morris and Yola is an incredible honor. Both of them represent the kind of artistry and individuality we love to showcase, and pairing that with a cause as meaningful as Music Will is what these nights are all about.”

Through partnerships with teachers, districts, departments of education, and industry leaders, the organization is expanding opportunities for students to engage in music programs that reflect their diversity and interests.
