She welcomes you to the show, thanks you for coming, and the band rips into its opening chords. As dancers rush to the floor, the smile on Mercedes’ face grows more radiant; you’re in her world and nothing else matters. You might think she was destined to do this, but you’d be wrong. Moore grew up doubting her skills, “I didn’t think that I could sing.” She says. “I didn’t think it was possible.” That was then, this is now. Today, fronting her own band, Mercedes works hard to be more than a voice. She wants fans to feel the music, the way she feels the music. Watching faces in the crowd on this night, as Mercedes swings through an extensive playlist of ballads, blues, and soul shakers, it’s obvious she has them right where she wants them. Yet, the most remarkable aspect of this story, the woman has only been singing professionally for a little more than eight years. Eight years. Let there be no doubt, Mercedes Moore is making the most of her time. As a nine-time San Diego Music Award nominee, Moore performs regularly with some of Southern California’s premier musicians. The list is endless–Taryn Donath, John Simons, Mark Campbell, Marc Ramos, Tracy Wiebeck, Kurt Kalker, Matt Taylor, Steve Wilcox, Scot Smart, Missy Andersen, Sharifah Muhammad, and Laura Chavez–to name but a few. When asked, Moore is straightforward about the multitude of players. “It just makes you a better singer.” She smiles. “And different people have different strengths. Plus, I want to learn, so I can be better.” It appears to be working. Mercedes Moore is currently juggling four major projects and her music can range from blues, gospel, and R&B and swing. This does not take into consideration the assortment of duo and trio sets, the occasional jazz venture, and an array of impromptu performances with local and visiting artists. “ About Golden Island Golden Island Dim Sum & Asian Cuisine is a 365 seat restaurant and music venue that serves fresh, hand-made, authentic Dim Sum all day every day, with a great selection of authentic asian cuisine to choose from.

The 21st Century India Center at UC San Diego’s School of Global Policy in Strategy (GPS) invites you to a timely discussion on the U.S. government’s recent decision to impose increased tariffs on key Indian industries, which are set to take effect on Aug. 27. This discussion will bring together leading voices from academia and business to unpack what’s at stake for both nations. Panelists will explore U.S. and Indian interests, incentives, and the likely responses in the coming weeks, drawing on lessons from recent trade events such as Brexit and the U.S.-China trade war. Academic experts, including Dean Caroline Freund and Professor Kyle Handley of GPS, will examine the potential impacts of the new tariffs on the private sector in both countries, on global trade patterns and on the broader U.S.-India relationship. From the business perspective, former Ambassador Atul Keshap (president of the U.S.-India Business Council) and Arun Kumar (managing partner at Celesta Capital) will share insights into how companies are reacting: near-term operational shifts, long-term adaptation strategies, and the risks and opportunities they see in a changing trade landscape. Both Keshap and Kumar will also draw on their diplomatic experiences to offer unique perspectives on the historical context and insights for navigating this critical moment in U.S.-India trade. Professor Achyuta Adhvaryu, director of the 21st Century India Center will serve as moderator. Join us for an informed, nuanced conversation to understand the economic realities and strategic choices shaping the future of trade between the U.S. and India. This webinar is organized by the 21st Century India Center at the UC San Diego School of Global Policy and Strategy (GPS). For more information on India activities, please visit india.ucsd.edu.
