SUMMARY:THAD WILSON QUARTET
DESCRIPTION:“My personality is youthful in nature so my audiences should be prepared for a high-energy musical journey. Blues\, R&B\, Hip Hop\, Gospel\, and Jazz have always been present in my sound. In my travels\, the one thing I’ve discovered is how fragile and beautifully unique the human condition is. When I compose and perform\, I base all of my musical ideas on the interconnectedness of that thing we call the human experience.” – Thad \nThad was born in Fort Dix\, New Jersey. However\, his musical life started as a child living in Montgomery\, Alabama. At fifteen\, he moved back to New Jersey where he was quickly recognized for his talent and awarded the All-American High School Music Award and a place in New Jersey’s All-State Jazz Ensemble. Shortly after\, he began studying privately with Jimmy Owens\, former member of Dizzy Gillespie’s Big Band. It was Jimmy who gave Thad a glimpse into the life of a true professional musician. In his early days\, he performed at the Village Gate\, Blue Note\, Visiones\, Knitting Factory and many other new york city venues. \nWhile in New York\, Thad was a member of Charlie Persip’s Super Band and had a brief stint with Illinois Jacquet. Over his career\, Thad has performed alongside James Moody\, Benny Golson\, Steve Turre\, Cecil Bridgewater\, Andrew White\, Buck Hill\, Keter Betts\, Johnny O’neal\, Russell Malone\, Roy Hargrove\, Wynton Marsalis and many others. He also lived briefly in Atlanta and made his way on the early hip hop scene performing with Bone Crusher\, Khalfani\, and many others. Currently\, Thad tours with the legendary group\, The Blackbyrds. He also composes and performs his live film scores all over the world.

SUMMARY:THE BAYLOR PROJECT
DESCRIPTION:A husband.  A wife.  An astonishing duo built on love\, family\, faith\, culture and community.  \nThese are the things that power The Baylor Project featuring Jean Baylor and Marcus Baylor.  This enticing collaboration is steeped in the heart and soul of jazz.  As the children of Pastors\, Marcus’ and Jean’s musical roots were planted deep within the church\, and it was there that the road was paved for the influence of jazz\, gospel\, blues and soul to make it’s mark. Their debut CD “The Journey“\, released on their own label\, Be A Light\, topped the Billboard Jazz Chart at Number 8 in 2017 and a year later garnered 2 GRAMMY® Nominations for Best Jazz Vocal Album and Best Traditional R&B Performance. Two years later during one of the most challenging years in recent history\, The Baylors released their single\, “Sit On Down” in 2020 which earned a 3rd GRAMMY® Nomination for Best Traditional R&B Performance\, solidifying The Baylor Project as an undeniable force. Their second album\, “Generations\,” released in 2021 earned the duo its first NAACP Image Award win for Outstanding Jazz Album-Vocal and it’s 4th GRAMMY® Nomination for Best Jazz Vocal Album.  And their first live album\, “The Evening : Live At APPARATUS” earned The Baylors their 5th and 6th GRAMMY® Nominations for Best Jazz Vocal Album and Best Improvised Jazz Solo. \nMarcus and Jean Baylor signed an exclusive distribution agreement\, in partnership with their artist-owned label\, Be A Light with Motown Gospel (a division of Capitol CMG/Capitol and Universal Music Group) making The Baylor Project’s catalogue available for the first time across all streaming platforms. \nJean\, a “Jersey Girl”\, was introduced to jazz in college as a Vocal Performance Major at Temple University\, where she was heavily influenced by artists such as Carmen McCrae\, Jimmy Scott\, and Shirley Horn. She subsequently made her mark as one-half of the platinum recording duo\, Zhane´. In time\, Jean grew into a composer\, arranger\, producer and bandleader. She has been a featured guest artist on performances and recordings with artists including Yellowjackets\, Kenny Garrett\, Marcus Miller and legendary bassist\, Buster Williams. Well-equipped with an agile mezzo-soprano range\, Jean combines a fresh\, whimsical approach to phrasing with clever improvisation resulting in singing of such vocal purity that she embraces the soul.

SUMMARY:THE HIGHTOWER HARPER HANG
DESCRIPTION:Singer/Songwriter Tony Hightower is taking up the mantle to be a bridge that ushers R&B audiences into Jazz…Real Jazz. With years of experience as a musical performer and actor with familiar roots that place him firmly within the music’s firmament\, Atlanta-native Hightower is still just getting started on this benevolent turn in his journey. And he is bringing a lot of young people with him. \n\n\nGrowing up in Atlanta with a local legend mother who was a Funk-Rock singer but could sing anything and mentored many singers coming behind her\, Tony learned music first-hand from Bobby Blue Bland and the Platters to Mother’s Finest\, S.O.S. Band and Brick. And as mother Theresa evolved as a first-class singer – shifting her focus to Jazz that resulted in her historic residency at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in once fiercely segregated Buckhead district of Atlanta\, Georgia – so\, too\, did Tony’s taste begin to broaden. The artist that Theresa followed at The Ritz: Freddy Cole\, Nat’s brother. \nTrumpeter Terence Harper started playing the drums at the age of two and at twelve years old began playing the trumpet. While in middle school he began playing the drums for one of the Spelman College Jazz ensembles under the direction of Joe Jennings\, while also being featured on a recording with the Inman Middle School jazz band on both trumpet and drums. \nHarper attended North Atlanta High School Center of the Performing Arts and played trumpet in both jazz band and symphonic band under the direction of Mr. Reginald Colbert. During his high school years he started to focus more on both classical and jazz trumpet and has won numerous auditions during his high school term including the Georgia Music Educators Association All State band\, principal trumpet for the district honor band\, The Talent Development Program and the Atlanta Youth Wind Symphony at Emory University. Terence has also attended the prestigious Interlochen Arts camp in Michigan and has also taught trumpet performance and jazz studies at Summerbridge Atlanta at the Lovett School. \nHe graduated from Rutgers University as a classical trumpet major in 2009\, where he studied under William Fielder\, who has been regarded as one of the greatest trumpet instructors of his generation. \nEvery Thursday: Music from 8:00pm ~ Midnight | Hang til 2:00am \nCover: $10.000 | Musicians: $5.00 | Free parking in the lot just past slutty vegan atl

SUMMARY:JOE ALTERMAN
DESCRIPTION:Joe Alterman Album Release Show \nAtlanta native Joe Alterman expresses a certain upbeat naivete\, with a broad smile and bright eyes that make you feel welcome. One would not guess that this is a man hailed by greats; Ramsey Lewis describes his music as “happy music with tasty meat on the bones\,” Les McCann states “Joe’s on a ‘blow your mind’ level\,” and Ahmad Jamal calls him “a very special artist.” Journalist Nat Hentoff championed three of Alterman’s albums\, as well as his writing (Joe wrote liner notes to three Wynton Marsalis/JLCO albums)\, calling one of Joe’s columns “one of the very best pieces on the essence of jazz\, the spirit of jazz\, that I’ve ever read\, and I’m not exaggerating.” \nJoe Alterman began at NYU with a BA and Masters in Jazz Piano from NYU and has since performed at many world renowned venues including the Kennedy Center\, Lincoln Center\, Birdland and Blue Note  alongside Houston Person\, Les McCann\, Dick Gregory\, Ramsey Lewis\, and his own trio\, among others. Downbeat describes his sound as “rooted in the blues\, and with a touch reminiscent of the great pianists of the 1950s—Red Garland\, Ahmad Jamal\, Bill Evans.” It is clear Joe hits all of the necessary points for Jazz critics and fans alike. \nBut there is more to the story\, of course. The 21st century has brought another transition for this thing called jazz; in one moment we see the push and pull between tradition and progression\, and in another we see Pop and Hip-Hop musicians emulating and sampling. In Joe Alterman we find none of this struggle; the music just sounds good. Our conscious faculties are instantly disabled as we tap our feet\, feeling the intent and joy of his playing. An old classic is new when you feel good in the moment. Or\, as Hentoff wrote about Alterman in the Wall Street Journal\, “Alterman’s continually evolving presence on the jazz scene surely makes people smile and\, if the room is right\, dance. There’ll be no need for any last rites of jazz.”

SUMMARY:EDDIE HENDERSON QUINTET
DESCRIPTION:Witness to History Record Release!\n\n“His musical wisdom\, gleaned during decades spent on the best jazz bandstands\, informs every unerring note.” – Downbeat. Eddie Henderson – trumpet Donald Harrison – alto saxophone George Cables – piano Gerald Cannon – bass Lenny White – drums Trumpeter Eddie Henderson celebrates the release of a highly anticipated new recording\, Witness to History\, that reflects on his incredible life in music and whose arrival coincides with the 50th anniversary of his 1973 recording debut as a leader\, Realization. \nJoining Henderson for these release performances is the spectacular quintet of his closest collaborators that he convened for the recording\, including alto saxophonist Donald Harrison\, pianist George Cables\, bassist Gerald Cannon\, and drummer Lenny White. Henderson’s “deft feel and plush sound made him a central figure in the worlds of jazz-funk and hard-bop in the 1970s\,” according to The New York Times. The Chicago Reader adds\, “His progressive\, assured\, and imaginative improvisations roll out in a glorious sun-splashed tone… he seems to dance through his solos\, balancing his quick clockwork technique with bursts of bluesy soul.” The eternally youthful Henderson has proven again that he is still making some of the most important music of his career into his 80s.
