SUMMARY:RENE MARIE
DESCRIPTION:Part of René’s musical philosophy has been focused on giving back. In 2010\, she launched a series of vocal therapy group sessions called SLAM. “I’ve never been to college or received any ‘professional’ training\,” she said at the time\, “so I feel a bit anxious about my ability to convey my personal approach to singing. However\, I know what I know\, and I’ve always been up for a good challenge.” And in a self-deprecating moment\, she added: “Although the thought of attempting to share my vocal philosophy often makes me wonder if I have completely lost touch with reality.” \nRené joined the Motéma label with the 2011 release of Voice of My Beautiful Country\, followed later that same year by Black Lace Freudian Slip. Her 2013 followup\, I Wanna Be Evil: With Love To Eartha Kitt\, earned a Grammy nomination in the Best Jazz Vocals category. Her Sound of Red album has been nominated for a 2016 Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Album. \nPerhaps more than most artists\, René understands music’s capacity to heal and inspire. Not only has she herself been the beneficiary of it\, but she has made every effort along the way to extend those same benefits to others. \n“I have never forgotten the early lessons learned about the power of music\,” she says. “Today\, I try to imbue that feeling of emotion into every song I write and every song I sing – every time. I am very happy to be alive today\, doing the things I love to do – singing\, composing\, writing\, teaching and arranging. \nCover: $29.95 ~ $46.35

SUMMARY:TERRI LYNE CARRINGTON & CHRISTIE DASHIELL
DESCRIPTION:Terri LynE Carrington: WE INSIST 2025! featuring Christy Dashiell \nFour-time GRAMMY-winning jazz icon Terri Lyne Carrington and GRAMMY-nominated vocalist Christie Dashiell release “Freedom Day (Part 1)\,” their vibrant reimagining of Max Roach’s timeless anthem “Freedom Day.” The single highlights Carrington’s lifelong mission to champion jazz and advocate for inclusivity and raise the voice of women\, trans and non-binary people in the genre. The single is out now via Candid Records\, listen here. \n“Freedom Day (Part 1)” is a dynamic tribute to the 1960 Max Roach and Oscar Brown Jr. composition\, from the groundbreaking album We Insists! Max Roach’s Freedom Now Suite.  Written to commemorate the emancipation of enslaved people in the United States\, the album stands as a defining artistic statement of the Black American civil rights movement. With a career defining performance by the incomparable Abbey Lincoln\, it is one of the most powerful and enduring statements of music as protest \nThe new arrangement breathes new life into the track\, blending Carrington’s signature drumming and electronics with Dashiell’s soulful vocals and an all-star ensemble featuring Matthew Stevens (guitar)\, Simon Moullier (vibes)\, Morgan Guerin (bass\, woodwinds)\, and Milena Casado (trumpet\, electronics). The result is a dynamic interpretation that honors the original’s revolutionary spirit\, while echoing a social justice message which remains poignant as ever today. \nCover: ¥ 10\,000 | $67.32

SUMMARY:ROY AYERS TRIBUTE
DESCRIPTION:Atlanta is  celebrating the legendary Roy Ayers. A pioneer of jazz-funk\, vibraphonist\, composer\, and producer whose sound became the heartbeat of Black culture from the 1970s through today. Often dubbed the “Godfather of Neo-Soul\,” Ayers’ genre-bending artistry shaped the sonic foundation for countless artists\, from Erykah Badu and The Roots to A Tribe Called Quest and Common. \n \nLong before the dancefloors of Harlem to the airwaves of London and the sample-heavy beats of 90s hip hop\, Roy Ayers’ Ayers started recording as a bebop sideman in 1962. In 1963\, he released his debut studio album West Coast Vibes featuring a collaboration with the saxophonist Curtis Amy. He rose to prominence when he dropped out of Los Angeles City College and joined jazz flautist Herbie Mann in 1966. His music has transcended generations\, inspiring a movement rooted in rhythm\, liberation\, and Black excellence. \n \nHosted by WCLK’s Morris Baxter\, the evening will be opened by Heda Rose\, followed by Mark Adams and a host of Atlanta musicians and vocalists. \nCover: $30.00 ~ $55.00
