SUMMARY:Friday\, July 11th:  The Music of Chaka Khan Meets Jazz.   *** SOLD OUT!!  SOLD OUT!!  SOLD OUT!!  ***
DESCRIPTION:SHOWTIMES: 7:30PM AND 9:30PM. \n\n\n\nJoin us for a blend of Chaka Khan’s greatest hits and jazz covers with Jazz standards! \n\n\n\nChaka Khan grew up on Chicago’s South Side in a musical family. From a young age\, she was exposed to jazz legends like Miles Davis\, Billie Holiday\, John Coltrane\, and Dinah Washington—artists her parents listened to regularly. This early exposure shaped her musical sensibility\, especially her sense of phrasing\, vocal improvisation\, and harmonic complexity. \n\n\n\nAlthough Chaka Khan is best known for her work in funk\, soul\, and R&B—especially with Rufus and hits like “Tell Me Something Good”—her vocal style is deeply jazz-influenced. Her phrasing\, scatting ability\, and tonal control often reflect jazz traditions\, even in mainstream hits. \n\n\n\nPersonnel: \n\n\n\n-Edwin Williams\, bass \n\n\n\n-Walter B\, piano \n\n\n\n-Kenito Murray\, drums \n\n\n\n-Dennis Springer\, tenor sax \n\n\n\n-Tamika Howard\, MD\, flute and tenor sax  \n\n\n\n-Talein\, lead vocals \n\n\n\n-Travis “Songbird” Dillard\, back up vocals \n\n\n\n****.  SOLD OUT!!   SOLD OUT!!  SOLD OUT!!  ***
