SUMMARY:TONY HIGHTOWER
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​His sophomore project\, LEGACY\, finds Hightower exploring Jazz vocal stylings from a dazzling prism of angles. The 10-song album moves confidently and assuredly from original compositions such as the soulful scat-laced “All to the Good\,” the seductive Brazilian bossa nova of “Rendezvous” and the tender carnal Jarreau-esque love beg “I Need You” to swingin’ covers of Earth\, Wind & Fire’s classic Skip Scarborough-penned “Can’t Hide Love\,” a mean shuffle boogie groove through Al Green’s “Love and Happiness” and a smoldering upright bass accompanied tiptoe through the 1929 Andy Razaf standard “Gee\, Baby\, Ain’t I Good To You” made further famous in 1944 by one of Hightower’s greatest and earliest Jazz vocal heroes\, Nat “King” Cole. That one’ll make the women wiggle.

SUMMARY:JOSE JAMES
DESCRIPTION:Often referred to as a jazz singer for the hip-hop generation\, New York City-based vocalist José James combines jazz\, soul\, drum’n’bass\, and spoken word into his own unique brand of vocal jazz. While he states his main influences as John Coltrane\, Marvin Gaye\, and Billie Holiday\, his sound on early 12″ singles and in live performances brought to mind such icons of ’70s jazz-soul as Terry Callier\, and his music felt more like an update of the fluid crossover approach of Gil Scott-Heron\, while also being distinctly his own. \n

SUMMARY:JOEY ALEXANDER
DESCRIPTION:It’s no coincidence two of the titles on pianist\, bandleader and composer Joey Alexander’s inspirational debut on Mack Avenue Records\, Origin\, contain the words “rise” and “rising.” \n“The Latin root of the word ‘origin’ is orire\, which means to rise\,” explains the restlessly searching musician\, who has performed everywhere from the Obama White House to the Grand Ole Opry and has been nominated for three GRAMMY® awards. “During this pandemic\, I think the first thing we should do is to start with being hopeful\, which is the main theme of Origin. Instead of making it a source of frustration\, I made it the source of inspiration to express myself in music.” \nGood plan. On his sixth album as a leader\, his first featuring all his own material\, Alexander has stretched his imagination into new territory\, challenging himself to write rich melodic and harmonic interplay without ever abandoning the emotional candor and transparency that have captivated crowds and catapulted his albums to the top of the jazz charts. \nShowtimes: December 2 & 3 \nDoors at 6:00 PM\, Show at 7:00 PM | Doors at 8:45 PM\, Show at 9:15 PM

SUMMARY:JANE MONHEIT
DESCRIPTION:Blessed with “a voice of phenomenal beauty” (Stephen Holden\, New York Times)\, Jane Monheit has had plenty of milestone moments in establishing herself as one of today’s best and most important vocalist-musicians. \nWith her new album\, The Songbook Sessions: Ella Fitzgerald—the first to be released on her own Emerald City Records—the Long Island native has surprised even herself with her artistic leap. Jane had thought about recording an Ella tribute for a long time. Fitzgerald’s beloved songbook albums held “Biblical” importance for her when she was growing up andhave never lost their hold on her. \nOn this new offering\, Monheit pays joyous tribute to Ella while sharing a definitive portrait of herself\, guided by her producer\, arranger\, and trumpet great\, Nicholas Payton. Once she decided to make the dream project a reality\, she had no trouble choosing titles. She jotted down a list of 25 titles “almost immediately.” She and Payton each narrowed the choices to a dozen and settled on the final list together. \nShowtimes: \n7:00 pm | Thurs\, Sun~$45.00\, Fri\, Sat~$50 \n9:00 pm | Thurs\, Sun~$45.00\, Fri\, Sat~$50 \n$15 food/beverage minimum per person not included in ticket price.

SUMMARY:DENISE KING & THE NEW YORK KOLLECTION
DESCRIPTION:Influenced by Sarah Vaughan\, Nancy Wilson Frank Sinatra and Aretha Franklin\, Denise King is an expressive\, big-voiced vocalist that combines jazz with elements of R&B\, Blues and Gospel. Born and raised in Philadelphia\, PA at the young age of twelve she discovered R&B and jazz thanks to an uncle who was a record collector that loved jazz. Denise King is\, brimming with energy\, good humor\, and swings with authentic jazz expression! As part of a tradition rooted in the history of jazz\, she fully lives the songs she sings. \nThough she’s no stranger to standards\, one of King’s strong points has been her ability to provide jazz interpretations of rock and soul hits\, sharing the stage with such legends as Lex Humphries\, Ted Curson\, Arthur Harper\, Brecker Brothers\, Cecil Payne\, Cecil McBee\, Sid Simmons Christian McBride\, Jerry Weldon\, Bootsie Barnes and many more. It is with these musicians that she learned the art of Jazz singing. \nThe European dream for jazz artists remains strong in its history\, and a gateway of empowerment for African Américan artists. As an international performer\, King has delighted audiences from the USA\, France\, Italy\, Belgium\, Cyprus\, Serbia\, Belarus\, Poland\, Japan\, Kazakstan\, Spain\, Russia\, Siberia\,Greece\, UK\, Turkey\, Azerbaijan\, Mahachcala\, Luxembourg and participated in the International Jazz Day in Paris. \nDenise is likened to a“natural singer” for she organically learned to sing\, outside of any educational system\, but through the natural progression of listening to recordings and watching live jazz performances.
