Celebration (Aug-Sept)

Late Summer has proved to be a time of celebration and completion.

I celebrated my birthday in August with friends on a Girl’s Trip to Rosemary Beach, Fla.  It was a much needed time to catch up with my friends after a very busy season of performing and working on my new Album. 
August/September also heralded “Sun’s Out” Single to the Top Smooth Jazz Charts with current status on Billboard at #14, Smooth Jazz Top 20 #5, Radiowave #3, Groove Jazz Music #4, MediaBase # 17, and Smooth Jazz .com #26.  

I had the honor of Recording at Orange Peel Studios with Lil John Roberts who added drum tracks, Sam Sims and Joseph Patrick Moore added bass tracks, Paul Brown and  Dan Baraszu added guitar tracks and engineered by Raheem Amlani. I went to Silent Sound Studios in Atlanta  to work with TK Kidd on the legendary Yamaha C7 for piano tracks.  While Paul Brown was in town I also sat in with his band at Suite Lounge Jazz Series  in Atlanta and played some keys.  I am finishing up the last track for the Album with Lew Laing in California. 
 
I was also honored to participate in the WCLK Fundraising Event Sept 25 and joined other celebrities at the Festivities.  
 
Stay tuned for more news on the new Album release Date and Events.
