SUMMARY:MONTY ALEXANDER
DESCRIPTION:Monty Alexander O.J.: “Honoring Harry Belafonte” with Luke Sellick & Jason Brown \nFrom Kingston\, Jamaica\, his hometown\, Grammy nominated pianist Monty Alexander is an American classic\, touring the world relentlessly with various projects\, delighting a global audience drawn to his vibrant personality and soulful message. A perennial favorite at Jazz festivals and venues worldwide and at the Montreux Jazz Festival where he has appeared 23 times since 1976\, his spirited conception is one informed by the timeless verities: endless melody-making\, effervescent grooves\, sophisticated voicings\, a romantic spirit\, and a consistent predisposition\, as Alexander accurately states\, “to build up the heat and kick up a storm.” In the course of any given performance\, Alexander applies those aesthetics to a repertoire spanning a broad range of jazz and Jamaican musical expressions—the American songbook and the blues\, gospel and bebop\, calypso and reggae. Documented on more than 75 recordings and cited as the fifth greatest jazz pianist ever in The Fifty Greatest Jazz Piano Players of All Time (Hal Leonard Publishing)\, the Jamaican government designated Alexander Commander in the Order of Distinction in 2000 and in 2018 The University of The West Indies bestowed him with an honorary doctorate degree (DLitt) in recognition of his accomplishments. For this engagement\, Monty\, along with bassist Luke Selick and drummer Jason Brown\, commemorates his long friendship with Harry Belafonte\, Jr. in stories and song. \nShowtimes: 7:00pm | 8:30pm | 9:30pm | 10:30pm

SUMMARY:BILLY HARPER QUINTET
DESCRIPTION:Billy Harper – tenor saxophone | Freddie Hendrix – trumpet | Francesca Tanksley – piano | Ben Young – bass | Aaron Scott – drums \n“His improvisations are torrential\, dance-like and swinging\, spiraling upward to mountaintop pronouncements that can leave listeners in a sweat.” – The New York Times Tenor saxophonist Billy Harper leads his celebrated quintet with trumpeter Freddie Hendrix\, pianist Francesca Tanksley\, bassist Ben Young\, and drummer Aaron Scott. One of the indispensable saxophonists of the past 50 years stylistically indebted to Trane\, Harper has a distinctive sound and approach that is purely his own. Over the years\, he’s worked with Art Blakey\, Max Roach\, Gil Evans\, Elvin Jones\, Lee Morgan\, and\, most recently\, the Cookers. The San Francisco Chronicle says\, “He is a soul of sensitivity and intelligence\, as well as of explosive\, majestic passion.” “His viscous\, chocolaty tone and depth-charge bursts from the bottom of his range [are] a stark contrast to the current trend for a post-bop homogeneity of tone in the newer generation of saxophone sounds\,” reports JazzWise.

SUMMARY:RODNEY JORDAN QUARTET
DESCRIPTION:Rodney is a native of Memphis\, Tennessee where he grew up playing the bass in church and with his high school orchestra. He later studied music with Dr. London Branch\, Alvin Fielder\, and Andy Hardwick at Jackson State University in Jackson\, Mississippi. During his college years\, Jordan joined the Mississippi Symphony Orchestra where he served as Assistant Principal Bassist. After graduating\, he became Chair of the String Department at the Dougherty County Public School and served as Principal Bassist with the Albany Symphony Orchestra in Albany\, GA. Teaching has always been an important part of Mr. Jordan’s life and career. In addition to teaching strings in Dougherty County\, he also taught in the DeKalb County School Systems. \nDuring his years in Georgia\, Jordan served as a bass instructor at Darton College (part of the University System of Georgia) in Albany and at Georgia State University in Atlanta. While living in Atlanta\, Jordan became one of the city’s most active jazz bassists\, performing and recording with some of America’s finest jazz musicians\, including Marcus Printup\, Mulgrew Miller\, James Williams\, Milt Jackson\, George Coleman\, and Russell Gunn. He joined the faculty in the School of Music at Florida State University in Tallahassee\, FL in 2001 where he now holds a rank of Associate Professor of Jazz Studies. Jordan teaches jazz bass\, jazz combo playing\, music education classes\, and a jazz styles class. \nJordan joined the Marcus Roberts Trio in 2009. It was evident during that first official performance of the newly-formed trio at the prestigious Wigmore Hall in London that Jordan thoroughly understood Roberts’ unique trio conception. Rodney Jordan is one of the most versatile jazz bassists on the scene today. His tone is rich and soulful when he plays hauntingly beautiful phrases with the bow. Just as readily\, he plays fast virtuosic passages with apparent effortless skill. Jordan’s knowledge of harmony from his classical bass training combined with the relentless feeling of swing in his playing is a perfect fit for the powerful melodic\, blues-based\, syncopated improvisational sound of the Marcus Roberts Trio. Live from Lincoln Center/ Pivot-Melvin Jones/Turnaround Records. \nThe Quartet: Rodney Jordan ~ Bass | Avis Berry ~ Vocal | Quentin Baxter ~ Drums | Louis Heriveaux ~ Piano \n

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.

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
