SUMMARY:Friday\, October 29th: Alexis Cole
DESCRIPTION:“…A beguiling voice and charming…stage manner.”— Ralph Miriello\, Notes on Jazz blog\, March 2018  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAward-winning jazz vocalist Alexis Cole may be the most talented singer to ever hold a top-secret military clearance. A dozen albums into her critically acclaimed career\, she may also be the best-kept secret in jazz\, a status that’s certain to change as more people are discovering her for themselves.  \n\n\n\nThe year 2009 was a big one for Alexis: She released her first albums on both Motéma Music and Venus Records… and went to Basic Training to prepare for her new job as a jazz singer for the US Army.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDuring her seven years in the Army’s Big Band\, Cole had the opportunity to grow as a musician and a person\, sharing the stage with ensembles as diverse as the New York Philharmonic and Kool and the Gang. Alexis continued recording throughout her tour of duty\, releasing a string of well-received albums\, including four titles for Venus\, two for Motema\, and two on Chesky Records. She proved her versatility on everything from jazz standards to Paul Simon’s lesser known compositions\, to Disney love songs to a project on which she teamed up with a fellow serviceman 50 years her senior\, the legendary guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli.   \n\n\n\nAlexis has blossomed since leaving the service in 2016\, trading her uniforms and fatigues for sleek cocktail dresses and chic hats\, and focusing fully on her art. The singer’s career has taken on exciting new momentum\, with recent accomplishments including gigs at celebrated venues like The Carlyle\, Carnegie Hall\, Birdland\, Jazz at Lincoln Center\, and the Blue Note; and performances as a soloist with prominent orchestras such as the Boston Pops and the Detroit Symphony. Alexis also recently contributed a guest turn on pianist Harold Mabern’s star-studded album Afro Blue\, alongside the likes of fellow guests Norah Jones\, Gregory Porter\, and Jane Monheit.

SUMMARY:Sunday\, October 31st:  Curtis Lundy with the Legendary Bobby Watson
DESCRIPTION:SHOWTIMES:  7:00pm and 9:00pm     A 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.
