SUMMARY:LIVESTREAM ONLY:  Curtis Lundy with Bobby Watson LIVE at The Velvet Note
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the exclusive online viewing of legendary musicians Curtis Lundy and Bobby Watson! \n\n\n\nA saxophonist\, composer\, arranger and educator\, Bobby Watson grew up in Kansas City\, Kan. He trained formally at the University of Miami\, a school with a distinguished and well-respected jazz program. After graduating\, he proceeded to earn his “doctorate” – on the bandstand – as musical director of Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers. The group\, created in 1955 by late legendary drummer who died in 1990\, showcased a rotating cast of players\, many who\, like Watson\, would go on to have substantial careers as bandleaders in their own right. The Jazz Messengers – frequently referred to as the “University of Blakey” – served as the ultimate “postgraduate school” for ambitious young players. \n\n\n\nThis is a private viewing of Watson’s performance at The Velvet Note in August of 2019\, to be shown on YouTube.  Once your viewing fee has been received\, we will send the exclusive private YouTube livestream link to you via email.  Want to make an extra donation to help our club?

SUMMARY:Saturday\, September 19th:  Robin Grant & The Standard
DESCRIPTION:Sensitive storytelling\, in the opinion of many\, is the most significant test of a singer. If that is the case\, then a song has found a friend in Robin Grant. \n\n\n\nA native of Chattanooga\, Robin has been delighting local audiences for many years. With the recent release of her first critically acclaimed album\, “Good Girls” she is now garnering national acclaim. Good Girls is a collection of original jazz songs reminscent of the all-time great standards. The album debuted on iTunes jazz charts in the number four slot! She will be debuting her second album on November 17th\, titled “Off Label” that will be streaming on all platforms. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRobin’s soulful stylings take her listeners back to the great Tinpan Alley days of the 1920’s 30’s and 40’s\, but it’s with an edgy delivery and sizzle that resonates with the youthful in body & spirit. Her live shows showcase her flaming vocals  throughout her diverse repertoire of all-time-favorites mixed with her popular original compositions. \n\n\n\nRobin began her music career at an early age. She developed her performance ability through classical training\, by earning her Bachelor’s degree in Vocal Performance and by embracing musical theater.  She later transitioned into jazz with the help of her mentor\, bassist Wilfred Middlebrooks. Middlebrooks is also a native of Chattanooga and toured for many years with Ella Fitzgerald. \n\n\n\nRobin’s meticulously phrased singing and controlled but inescapable intensity is supported by her talented band\, The Standard. Over and over they have proven their ability to captivate and move any audience. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCan’t come in to see the show?  To make a donation and view online\, click HERE.

SUMMARY:Saturday\, August 29th:  Singer Mercy Myra
DESCRIPTION:One of the most enjoyable entertainers anywhere! \n\n\n\nDefinitely born to sing\, Mercy Myra is lauded as Kenya’s leading female R&B artist\, often viewed as a female pioneer in the Kenyan music scene. She made her mark in the industry with a string of hits from two successful CD releases: Taba Samu (2001) and Nyisri Malong’o (2003). Favorites like “I’m Gonna Fly”\, “Maneno”\, “Life”\, “Imagine” and “Tie Dero” topped the African music charts. International performances\, tours and guest appearances came next\, as well as numerous awards and accolades. She feels very close to her newest single\, “Back Home”\, which touches on the subject of missing her native Kenya. Its grounded yet airy percussions\, as well as a subtle bass line allow the song to have a natural feel\, as if evoking the four elements of nature: water\, air\, fire and earth.  \n\n\n\n*** 7:30 show is sold out.  Only 6 seats left in 9:30 show ***
