SUMMARY:The Kevin Bales Centennial Blues Band
DESCRIPTION:“The Kevin Bales Centennial Blues Band”\n~ Blues from Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blues up to the present\, all with a jazz perspective ~\nKEVIN BALES ~ Musician\, Teacher\, Performer ~\nBy some measures\, Kevin Bales was a latecomer to jazz\, already 17 when he encountered the sounds and structures and became captivated by the freedom and corresponding challenges of the music. But if late to the party\, he wasted no time in immersing himself in the celebration\, declaring total commitment to what would be his life’s work and backing his announcement by resigning his job and designated career in computer programming.\nKevin could commit to jazz with a reasonable degree of expectation. He was already an accomplished pianist\, with classical chops refined since the age of 10. So accomplished he was invited to audition for the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra\, then under the direction of its most storied conductor Robert Shaw\, at age 16.\nKevin’s initial career move was to the University of North Florida and a budding if little-known jazz program. There he met and performed with\, and went on to record and tour with\, a number of monumental artists who had settled into that burgeoning North Florida jazz scene. Giants like Wynton Marsalis\, Louie Bellson\, Eddie Daniels\, James Moody\, Ben Tucker\, Ira Sullivan\, Sam Rivers\, and Nat Adderley. He counts among his mentors bassist Ben Tucker\, multi-instrumentalist Ira Sullivan\, guitar legends Nathen Page and Jack Petersen\, and the fiercely individual saxophonist Bunky Green. His meeting with Bunky Green led to five years of tours. His encounter with guitarist Nathen Page blossomed into 15 years of spot tours and four albums. And his work with trumpeter extraordinaire Marcus Printup has become a lifetime association that has included recordings on Blue Note/Capital records.\nvisit Kevin at www.kevinbales.com\nMUSIC CHARGE: $20.00\nREQUEST A RESERVATION

SUMMARY:VELVET CARAVAN
DESCRIPTION:Since it’s beginning\, Velvet Caravan’s journey has continued to gain momentum\, as its reputation for top-notch virtuosity and unforgettable live shows has become the band’s unique global brand. Praised for its “compositional whimsy and ferocious technique” (The Austin Chronicle)\, Velvet Caravan “brings together musicians from as close as Austin and as far away as Venezuela and Slovenia. The quintet’s varied lineage contributes to its eclectic sound\, as the group weaves thick threads of Latin and gypsy music into acoustic swing jazz” (The Austin Chronicle). Whether on the big stage with a full orchestra or in an intimate jazz club\, the band remains “tight and vibrantly free. Velvet Caravan pours violin\, acoustic guitar\, upright bass\, accordion\, keyboard and percussion into a gumbo of lively swing music.” (Creative Loafing\, Atlanta)\nAs a national and international touring ensemble\, the band still calls Savannah\, Georgia it’s home\, bringing a bit of southern charm and coastal coolness to their music. If one were to name one Savannah-based musical act that most exemplifies this time-honored\, eclectic and adventurous city\, they’d be hard to find a more appropriate ambassador than Velvet Caravan.\nThis unorthodox\, high-energy\, acoustic-based quintet has\, over the past few years\, emerged as one of the shining lights of the Coastal Empire’s burgeoning music scene. In that time\, the band has grown to perform as an instrumental combo which routinely drew enthusiastic and loyal followers at raucous restaurants and jazz clubs to a respected and admired touring act that’s comfortable in an attentive listening room or large concert hall. They have recently built their show to occasionally collaborate with vocalists\, orchestras\, and a variety of featured musicians.\nAmong the orchestral collaborations\, the group has performed with the Savannah Philharmonic Orchestra\, the Hilton Head Symphony Orchestra\, and the Jackson Symphony Orchestra. They have also performed in world-class jazz clubs such as The Iridium in New York City\, The Jazz Corner in Hilton Head and in intimate listening rooms such as Eddie’s Attic in Atlanta. Among many festivals and events\, Velvet Caravan has enjoyed performing with many music festivals including the South By Southwest Music Festival in Austin\, TX and the Rochester International Jazz Festival in Rochester\, NY.\nVelvet Caravan’s unique ability to subtly shift musical gears without sacrificing their integrity as composers and performers is rare indeed. This has resulted in an envelope-pushing group that’s just as successful at dazzling jaded cocktail drinkers as they are at commanding the rapt attention of serious music aficionados in whisper-quiet recital environments. Of late\, the band has even taken things a step further\, by mesmerizing and inspiring even the most finicky of schoolchildren through fun and engaging music educational programming.\nwww.velvetcaravan.com\n \n \n \nMUSIC CHARGE: $20.00\nREQUEST A RESERVATION

SUMMARY:The Lenore Raphael Trio featuring Guitarist Howard Paul
DESCRIPTION:Critics\, jazz hosts and jazz lovers all agree that she is one of the most SWINGING mainstream pianists today. Influenced by Oscar Peterson\, Bud Powell and Bill Evans\, she has taken these influences and created her own recognizable sound.  Jazz critic John Gilbert has called her “simply one of the best pianists in the jazz mainstream today”…(AllAboutJazz.com)\nLenore had the honor of performing at the tribute to Oscar Peterson in Toronto\, Canada where she performed her well known composition. “Blues For O.P.”\nShe has won ASCAP awards for her original compositions\, which appear on her own CDs and other artists’. They have been played on Continental Airlines in-flight jazz stream\, and on jazz stations worldwide\, including their inclusion into the Jazz At Lincoln Center jazz stream.\nLenore has recorded 7 critically acclaimed CDS on the Swingin’ Fox Music label. Some of her recordings have reached Top 10 airplay and her 2006 recording “Invitation” and 2012 recording “Loverly” were up for Grammy nominations.\nLenore now has her own radio show called “Lenore Raphael’s JazzSpot” on purejazzradio on the internet where she interviews and performs with famed jazz artists and up and coming ones as well. Along the way she has performed and recorded with such greats as Clark Terry\, Warren Vache\, Howard Alden\, Harry Allen\, Bucky Pizzarelli\, Jack Wilkins and more.\nHoward Paul\, President/CEO of Benedetto Guitars\, Inc. readily acknowledges that he is fortunate to combine his vocation and avocation. A highly respected jazz guitarist who detoured along the way to study political science\, serve in the military\, and rise in corporate management\, his enthusiasm for his company is infectious. Today\, he strikes a delicate but exhausting balance between performance at jazz clubs and concert halls\, lectures at universities and music schools\, collaborations with artist/endorsers\, and running the day-to-day business of manufacturing and sales at the 9\,000SF Benedetto Guitars’ workshop located on the south side of Savannah\, GA.\nAs a musician\, he has performed/recorded with jazz guitar legends including Bucky Pizzarelli\, Jimmy Bruno\, Howard Alden\, Jack Wilkins\, Joe Beck\, Joe Negri\, Frank Vignola\, Andreas Oberg and small group performances with bassist Ben Tucker\, flutist Ali Ryerson\, vibraphonist Chuck Redd\, bassist Phil Flannigan\, Oliver Nelson\, Jr.\, B3 masters Joey DeFrancesco\, Tony Monaco and Doug Carn\, and piano legend/Grammy winner Bob James and sax great Tom Scott. He has lectured at Duquesne\, University of Southern California\, San Diego State University\, University of South Carolina\, University of Louisiana\, Furman\, Winthrop\, Berklee College of Music\, and Musicians Institute. He is a recurring clinician for the National Guitar Workshop\, contributing editor to Just Jazz Guitar Magazine\, and has twice been a featured artist at The Smithsonian Institutions’ Jazz Cafe\, and a jazz clubs including The Jazz Standard\, The Jazz Kitchen\, Yoshi’s Oakland\, The Jazz Corner\, Kuumbwa Jazz Center\, Silos\, Merion Inn and Blue Wisp. In 2011 Howard was inducted in the Savannah/Coastal Jazz Hall of Fame.\nLenore Raphael has a love affair with the piano\, as demonstrated by the myriad of emotions she is able to evoke in her playing…from a sweetly swinging mode to pure\, nonstop bop\, Raphael is the personification of swing\n…John Gilbert\, AllAboutJazz\nFor more on Lenore Raphael and Howard Paul visit www.lenoreraphael.com and www.howardpaul.com.\nMUSIC CHARGE: $20.00\nREQUEST A RESERVATION
