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:HOT PANTS DE FRANCE
DESCRIPTION:Assembling some of the hottest talent from around the world\, touring/session guitarist (Maynard Ferguson\, NKOTB\, Kenny Loggins) and Emmy nominated film/tv composer Sam Kaufmann formed the Gypsy Jazz and Swing Group – Hot Pants de France. Sam has liberated himself from the Hot Jazz canon and presents his own uninhibited\, modern style with Hot Pants de France and highlights what is still to come. Well received by both listeners and the press\, the vision was to bring a fresh\, contemporary feel to hits from the ’70s\, ’80s and ’90s by arranging them in the style of jazz great Django Reinhardt. The intention was not to simply recapitulate the music\, but to interpret it with a uniqueness\, incorporating modern influences\, while remaining true to the innovative style created by Django and Stéphane Grappelli in Quintette du Hot Club de France\, one of the first all-string jazz bands. \nThe dichotomy between musical styles of the ’40s and the ’90s is bridged by our various vocalists including Lisa Rittner\, and Valeria Koka. Each elegantly bringing the music into the sound of “today”. Lisa honed her chops for a decade on the Queen Mary and the band Sound F/X. In addition to her voice\, Lisa gracefully adds her Saxophone prowess to Hot Pants’ samba-esque version of “Black Hole Sun”. While Valeria is best known for her vocal work with Ukranian Superstar Artem Pivovarov and her own Valeria Koka Sextet. \nHarkening back to the establishing sound of OG – Stéphane Grappelli\, Jane Young (2nd Place International Grand Prix of St. Petersburg\, Swiss Dream Circus\, NBC\, Nova/PBS) constructed excellent counterpoint to Sam’s guitar lines. The two play off each other like a conversation between old friends. \nFinally\, touring/session bassist Jack O’Roonie (Andre Williams\, Danny B Harvey\, Wanda Jackson and Labella Strings endorsee) outlines the harmony while controlling the dynamics and pace of the band with his fantastical yet proficient bass lines. \nYears of experience and effortless interaction are clear – noteworthy on the recordings as well as on stage. Standing on the works by Django Reinhardt\, it is this unique mix of pop\, jazz\, americana and inventive compositions that makes the unmistakable sound of the group. \nBAND MEMBERSSam Kaufmann – Reharmonizer and GuitarLisa Rittner – Vocals and SaxValeria Koka – VocalsJack O’Roonie – BassAndrea Reynolds and Jane Young – Violin
