The Jazz Voyager

The Jazz Voyager is on his way to Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan for a jazz experience at the Dirty Dogg Jazz Cafe. This is the first time in the city and the club, however, it is not the first experience for the talented vocalist of Eugenie Jones.

Opened in 2008, the venue is one of the premier destinations in the United States for world class jazz and cuisine. Combining intimacy, meticulous attention to detail, and hospitality it has the charm of an English-style pub. The atmosphere is relaxed and fun and every visit is memorable and always entertaining.

Jones will bring her talents to the stage Friday and Saturday for two sets each night. An exceptional vocalist and cleverly gifted lyricist she has released highly praised, primarily original, vocal projects. Hopefully we will be listening to selections from her latest  Grammy nominated release, Players.

The club is located at 97 Kercheval Avenue, 48236 and the number is 313-882-5299. For more info visit https://notoriousjazz.com/event/eugenie-jones-2.

STANLEY JORDAN

In a career that took flight in 1985 with commercial and critical acclaim, guitar virtuoso Stanley Jordan has consistently displayed a chameleonic musical persona of openness, imagination, versatility and maverick daring. Be it bold reinventions of classical masterpieces or soulful explorations through pop-rock hits, to blazing straight ahead jazz forays and ultramodern improvisational works—solo or with a group—Jordan can always be counted on to take listeners on breathless journeys into the unexpected.

Key to Jordan’s fast-track acclaim was his mastery of a special technique on the guitar’s fretboard. Instead of conventional strumming and picking, Jordan’s innovative “touch technique” is an advanced form of two-handed tapping. While a handful of other players were using similar techniques, Stanley’s fluid, multi-layered textures and sheer virtuosity raised the bar for excellence. But his technique, though impressive, is always a means to a musical end. His music is imbued with a warmth and sensitivity that has captured the imagination of listeners worldwide. A classically trained pianist before playing guitar, Jordan wanted greater freedom in voicing chords on his guitar, so, he applied piano principles to do so. Jordan’s touch technique allows the guitarist to play melody and chords simultaneously with an unprecedented level of independence. It also allows Jordan to play simultaneously on two different guitars, or even on guitar and piano. He says that “I think of it as a single instrument, but one with a wide range of tonal colors—that’s why I do it.”

Stanley Jordan has performed in over 60 countries, on some of the biggest stages and festivals worldwide. He’s a unique performer who routinely leaves his audience mesmerized.
