SUMMARY:CHRISTOPHER BROWN QUARTET
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Noah Simpson\n\nNoah Simpson: Trumpet | Matt Sazima: Piano | Garrett Baxter: Bass | Christopher Brown: Drums \nChristopher Brown is an acclaimed musician\, composer\, bandleader\, and educator who seeks to be a voice within the advocacy of Jazz music and American culture. And through the expansive range of groups that he has assembled and/or performed with—which span from duos to Jazz big bands to military marching bands and orchestras—his musical and personal experiences have led him towards an interest in synthesizing the principles of Jazz with the day-to-day practicalities of life. However\, given that businesses shape the global market economy that everyone lives and participates in\, is why he has found it useful to integrate business philosophies with that of music to help develop himself and his band. Which as he likes to say\, “we’re all in the same business…the people-trusting-people business. No people\, no business.”

SUMMARY:MONTY ALEXANDER
DESCRIPTION:Nearly sixty years after he moved to the United States from 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 conferred on him the national honor of the Order of Jamaica in 2022 for “Sterling Contributions to the Promotions of Jamaican Music and the Jazz Genre Interpretations Globally”. In 2018 the University of The West Indies bestowed him with an honorary doctorate degree (DLitt) in recognition of his accomplishments. \nMonty’s latest album (released August 19\, 2022) is titled Love Notes and is his first recording featuring his vocals. The release of “Love Notes” will be accompanied by tour dates worldwide. Also in the works is “The Monty Alexander Movie\,” a documentary on Monty’s life and music. Directed by Academy Award-winning cinematographer Jefferson Miller\, and veteran filmmaker Arthur Gorson\, the project is currently in production in Jamaica\, the U.S. and Europe.

SUMMARY:VANESSA RUBIN
DESCRIPTION:Set 1: 7:00 pm – 8:20 pm | Set 2: 9:00 pm – 10:20 pm – Sold Separately \nRevered as both a torchbearer and a storyteller\, jazz vocalist Vanessa Rubin possesses a voice hailed for crystalline clarity\, hearth-like warmth\, and playful lioness sass. The Cleveland native brings a wealth of diverse influences to her vocal performance from both the Trinidadian/Caribbean roots of her mother and traditional jazz by way of her Louisiana-born father. Additional homespun influences include the melodic bell tone clarity of a young Capital Records recording artist\, Nancy Wilson\, the fire of Lambert\, Hendricks & Ross\, the sweet sounds of trumpeter Blue Mitchell as well as her love of the Motown Sound…especially girl groups like the Supremes. \nRubin’s passion for rich musical stories is evidenced throughout her eight albums thus far\, plus numerous guest appearances. Highlights include the evocative “Voyager II” from the pen of Teri Thornton\, “Inside a Silent Tear” written by Blossom Dearie\, a refashioned waltz version of John Coltrane’s “Giant Steps” lyricized by New York Voices\, and an arrangement of “Superwoman” by Stevie Wonder inspired by the Ahmad Jamal recording of “Poinciana.” So while she has one foot planted in tradition – sticking close to timeless melodies and exquisite vocal forms – Rubin waxes adventurous\, embracing stories lesser told while employing lessons of acclaimed storytellers in songs such as Carmen McRae\, Shirley Horn\, and Freddy Cole. “They mastered the art of believability\, Rubin asserts. Additionally\, Rubin continues to back her way into The Blues with an urgent appreciation for soulful mentors like Etta Jones and Irene Reid. Also among her current endeavors is highlighting and interpreting well-known\, obscure\, and new lyrical works of composer/arranger/pianist Tadd Dameron. “I hope to do for Tadd’s music what Carmen McRae did for Monk’s music\,” Rubin explained. \nVanessa’s first gigs began around 1980 in small clubs around Cleveland\, such as Tucker’s Place\, Bob’s Toast of the Town\, Lancer’s Steak House\, Club Isabella\, The Native Son\, and The Teal Lounge. Some early band mates included Wynn Bibbs\, Skip Gibson\, saxophonist and arranger Willie Smith\, Neal Creque\, Matthew “Chink” Stevenson\, and\, later\, the uniquely soulful organ quartet of The Blackshaw Brothers with Cecil Rucker on vibes. “We worked eight days a week all over Cleveland\, catching the tail end of what was left over from the good old days\,” Rubin recalls. After two years\, Rubin was anxious to set her sights on New York\, where she earnestly and humbly soaked up the tutelage of many veterans like Pharaoh Sanders\, Frank Foster\, and Barry Harris. \nRubin remains a favorite at jazz clubs and festivals in the US and abroad. Her work as a producer and educator/clinician with youth in communities and educational institutions worldwide is ongoing.

She joins Redman with the dynamic newly assembled rhythm section of pianist Aaron Parks\, bassist Joe Sanders\, and original Redman quartet drummer Brian Blade. \nRedman calls “where are we” “a meditation on America and the power and importance of place.” The artists take on music from Rodgers & Hart to Springsteen\, all interpreted with the improvisational brilliance and melodic invention that is a hallmark of Redman’s artistry – and of this remarkable ensemble. \n

SUMMARY:VANESSA RUBIN  QUARTET
DESCRIPTION:New York City vocalist extraordinaire and 2020 NAACP Image Awards nominee makes a one-night-only return. \nVanessa’s journey to becoming a jazz singer could be said to have begun at an early age. She was characterized by her mother as always being “a very vocal child\,” and knew Vanessa would\, “do something with that big ol’ mouth of hers.” Coming from parents who valued academia\, discipline and hard work\, that “something” was meant to be law school. Attaining a BA from the The Ohio State School of Journalism in 1979 was not a disappointment. However\, her decision to pursue a career jazz singing did come as a surprise. Vanessa’s fascination with language coupled with her passion for music\, especially jazz\, pointed her on a collision course toward jazz performance. \nHer “a-ha” moment came during a college beauty pageant at which Vanessa was accompanied by a very young\, and even then\, a very capable Bobby Floyd of Columbus\, Ohio. Her first performance of a jazz evergreen\, the Billie Holiday original “God Bless The Child\,” garnered both rousing applause and the winning talent award. Most importantly though\, it awakened what Vanessa describes as “her calling.” “I fell in love with the moment\, the music\, the audience and the effect it had on them and me\,” Rubin remembers. \nVanessa’s first gigs began around 1980 in small clubs around Cleveland such as Tucker’s Place\, Bob’s Toast of the Town\, Lancer’s Steak House\, Club Isabella\, The Native Son and The Teal Lounge. Some early band mates included Wynn Bibbs\, Skip Gibson\, saxophonist and arranger Willie Smith\, Neal Creque\, Matthew “Chink” Stevenson and\, later\, the uniquely soulful organ quartet of The Blackshaw Brothers with Cecil Rucker on vibes. “We worked 8 days a week all over Cleveland catching the tail end of what was left over from the good old days\,” Rubin recalls. After two years\, Rubin was anxious to set her sights on New York where she earnestly and humbly soaked up the tutelage of many veterans like Pharaoh Sanders\, Frank Foster and Barry Harris.

SUMMARY:KATHY KOSINS QUARTET
DESCRIPTION:A singular sound in the vocal world\, Kosins exemplifies the intersection of jazz and soul. In 2022\, Kosins earned several top nominations for her duet with Frank McComb\, “I Gotta Pinch Myself”\, featuring Najee. The song was nominated in the Song of the Year category at the SoulTracks Readers Choice Awards. She also played to sold-out audiences in Istanbul and the UK. Her latest single with renowned pianist\, composer\, and producer Bob Baldwin\, “Let’s Rewind”\, earned her another Number One Spot on the Smooth Jazz charts\, the UK Soul Chart Top 30 and the Indie Soul Chart Top 30. \n2023 has exciting news for all discerning soul jazz fans: new material with Paul Randolph and the legendary Al Hudson will end up on an EP\, due in the first quarter of the new year. And Kosins will also release several tracks she wrote during the making of her now-classic “Uncovered Soul” and its aftermath. Lookout also for more tour dates at home and abroad. Steeped in the jazz tradition as well as all of the energy and intensity of soul\, Kosins’s most recent album release\, Uncovered Soul\, was the natural next step in her prolific career. \nAfter successful engagements at the 2019 Blue Note at Sea Cruise and Blue Note Beijing\, the Exit Zero Jazz Festival\, a supporting performance for Gregory Porter in Atlanta\, an appearance at The Bach Dancing & Dynamite Society’s famed winter jazz series\, Detroit Vocalist and ASCAP Award Winning composer Kathy Kosins is thrilled to celebrate the two year-long success that her sixth studio album\, Uncovered Soul has gained across commercial radio. The driving\, funk-tinged track “Put the Voodoo on Me\,” is Kosins’s 4th consecutive Top 20 Smooth Jazz Single and topped the Indie Soul Chart at #1.
