Yadda Yadda is a Chicago-born composer and bassist led by Ayanna Woods. Her work sits at the crossroads of electropop, jazz, neo-soul, and chamber-ensemble textures—an improvisational, sometimes notated voice that defies easy labeling. Woods has held prominent roles with The Crossing and Third Coast Percussion and was The Crossing’s first resident composer (2022–23).
