Saturday, May 15th: Bernadette Seacrest, and Kris Dale with Darren Stanley
2021-05-15 19:30 - 23:00 | The Velvet Note Main Stage, 4075 Old Milton Parkway, Alpharetta, 30005, United States
Bernadette’s creative path reads like the back story to a mid-century Hollywood heroine: Ballerina, Fashionista, Hell Kitten, Sultry Chanteuse. She spent her childhood in California and New York studying classical dance with the renowned Los Angeles Ballet, San Francisco Ballet and American Ballet Theatre until an injury drove her love of drag and pageantry north east and underground. Coming of age amidst the gutter glam and jewel-toned ink of New York and L.A.’s early 80′s street punk scene the ballerina scraped by as a sometimes fetish model, makeup artist, clothing designer and stylist.

Like an all-consuming novel, we consider life’s twists, plights and circumstances…with Bernadette’s seductive voice guiding us all the while atop raw and sparse instrumentation. Bernadette’s allure continues to foster a constellation of talented friends as Atlanta’s local heavy hitters Big Mike Geier (AKA Puddles Pity Party) and legendary Hall of Fame inductee Francine Reed appear on two separate tracks. A Bernadette Seacrest “show” is better described as a coveted experience for the quietly informed. Her willing subjects recoil, laugh and blush as she relentlessly exorcises the demons of doubt, inhibition and lowered expectations born of life’s bludgeoning routines. Fans smile knowingly while newcomers are buffeted through songs with each new effort seeming to top the last. When the lights come up, they carry their experiences home in a beguiled state of wonder. Something has been restored and reclaimed. It’s authentic…. it’s intimate….. and we are blessedly reminded of how music can make us feel when we’re lucky enough to be in the right place at the right time.

It may sound cliche, but Michael Burton was made for making music. Jackson, Mississippi native Michael Burton’s musical gift was trained from an early age and honed through years of commitment. His mother was a singer with the Mississippi Mass Choir and his father a tenor saxophonist. In a home filled with music, he developed an affinity for soul and jazz. As a student in Jackson Public Schools, Burton took part in music programs offered at JPS’s Academic and Performing Arts Complex (known as Power APAC) and after graduating from Murrah High School in 1996 he embarked on a journey to build on this musical legacy.Since completing both bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Jazz Studies – under the tutelage of David Baker at Indiana University – Burton’s legacy and musical career has flourished. He has toured with Mary J. Blige, Jill Scott, Patti LaBelle, and Anita Baker as well as with New Edition, Johnta Austin, soul artist PJ Morton, and blues singer Willie Clayton. Burton has played keys and sax for the Tyler Perry stage productions Madea Goes To Jail, What’s Done In The Dark, Why Did I Get Married, Hell Hath No Fury, The Haves and The Have Nots, Laugh To Keep From Crying, Madea’s Big Happy Family, and A Madea Christmas. Burton has appeared in the Perry films Madea’s Big Happy Family, I Can Do Bad All By Myself, The Family That Preys, and Madea’s Family Reunion.Burton has recorded with a long list of jazz, soul, rhythm and blues, gospel, and hip/hop artists including Lecrae, Polow Da Don, Ann Nesby, Jennifer Holliday, PJ Morton, Avery Sunshine, Marcus Johnson, The Mississippi Mass Choir, and many others. His soulful saxophone can also be heard on the Grammy Nominated “Love Has Finally Come At Last,” by Calvin Richardson. Mike was also a featured soloist on Hidden Beach Recordings “Unwrapped Volume 5.”As if his performance credits weren’t prolific enough, Burton’s television and studio production work extends the list. He has appeared on The Tonight Show, Good Morning America, The Steve Harvey Show, Ellen, Jimmy Kimmel, TV One, BET Jazz, and performed alongside pianist Bobby Lyle on the popular show Studio Jams. Mike was in the house band for the 2013 – 2016 Trumpet Awards (which aired on Tone and Bounce TV), as well as seasons 6, 7, and 8 of BET’s hit show Sunday Best. He was also in the house band for the 2011 Dove Awards, the 2015 UNCF honors (BET), and the 2015 McDonalds 365 Black Awards (BET).

Burton has also written and/or produced songs for Alex Bugnon, Terrell Carter, Christian Keyes, Chandra Currelley, and Melvin Miller. Mike has released 3 independent projects, “Sojourn,” “Soulful,” and “The Producer.” Most recently, Mike and a few of his musician friends put together the Good Times Brass Band, a horn driven band with a funky blend of New Orleans style second line and DC GoGo.

Saturday, June 12th: Flugelhornist Ron Helman
2021-06-12 19:30 - 23:00 | The Velvet Note Main Stage, 4075 Old Milton Parkway, Alpharetta, 30005, United States
“While listening to flugelhornist Ron Helman’s new album, you might detect a strong insinuation of line and form, of motion, elegance and grace – and for good reason. Before becoming a jazz musician at the ripe age of 44, the New Jersey-born, New Mexico-based Helman spent years as a dancer and gymnast. In his former life, he served as a dance coach with the Juilliard School Drama Department and even provided chorograpical expertise to the likes of Sting, Al Pacino ad Julianne Moore. A certified life coach and business coach, Helman also trained as a classical trumpeter and performed in off-Broadway productions. He calls It Never Entered My Mind an autobiographical album, and for the most part, the music on the disc is as compelling and diverse as Helman’s life story. Produced by Mike Mainieri, the program of 11 jazz standards unfolds with a sense of thematic balance, alternating hard, biting swing and misty balladry. Helman’s solo on a gusty “Just Friends” provides flash and pop, and later a guest turn by vocalist Ann Hampton Callaway on “Born To Be Blue” luxuriates in slow, deliberate gestures. Helman’s tone is of the airy, wind-blown sort, and positions him squarely on the Miles Davis/Chet Baker end of the timbre spectrum. But it’s a tone he adapts tp varied contexts. On “All Or Nothing At All”, he engages in flinty dialogue with saxophonist Steve Wilson, generating sparks in the heated exchange, while on the album-closing title track, he converses with pianist Rachel Z Hakim and guitarist David Spinozza in whispers. Bassist James Genus and drummer Joel Rosenblatt add crisp accompaniment no matter the setting or style, and Mainieri’s clean, clean attentive production ensures a crystalline glow.”

2021-06-27 19:30 - 21:30 | The Velvet Note Main Stage, 4075 Old Milton Parkway, Alpharetta, 30005, United States
Born in Atlanta, Georgia and raised in the wilds of Wisconsin, Mandi Strachota is the product of southern roots and Midwest know-how, a potent mix of practicality and soulful dreaming. Mandi has become a fixture on the Atlanta scene, playing at local spots like Northside Tavern and Blind Willie’s, and most recently The Vista Room and as an opener for Delbert McClinton at the Variety Playhouse in 2020. She began taking her music nationwide with a successful cross country tour in 2019 and a scheduled tour for 2020 that was unfortunately postponed by the Coronavirus. She is known for her soulful vocals, but is a multi-instrumentalist who is quickly becoming known for her songwriting. Mandi released her debut album Fly in the fall of 2013. Her second project Unleashed, which was released in September of 2017, tells her very honest story of self-discovery. Embracing R&B, gospel and soul, with a touch of grit and country sway, Unleashed is timeless in its sound, but thoroughly modern in its message. Mandi was selected as Creative Loafing’s 2019 Reader’s Choice Best Acoustic Artist and was a semifinalist in the 2020 International Blues Challenge. Following the IBC in March of 2020, she released her third album, Pictures, a blues based project that dabbles in jazz, gospel, and country and includes her Major 7 bandmates as well as a couple other local favorites. Her 2017 country single Whiskey In the Parking Lot was featured in the Indie film Live or Die In La Honda, and she is currently in the process of recording a double country album aimed at being released in 2021.

Mandi is also the lead vocalist for the Wasted Potential Brass Band who performed at Bonnaroo 2018 as well as Super Bowl LIII and recently released their first full length album titled Ruining the Surprise Party. WPBB is expected to release another EP in 2021. She is also a former member of the local blues legend Mudcat’s band, collaborating with him on his 2018 release Castaway.
