September Line-Up
To Date:
Big Brooklyn Red

 

In 1997, when this native Brooklynite moved to Miami and received his name from Mandrill’s guitarist Tommy Trujillo, the die was cast. He realized at that point, by leaving his familiar NYC to conquer new lands, he was stepping into his destiny.

Only six months after moving to Miami, Big Brooklyn Red became known as the premier soul singer in South Florida. His trademark freestyles made each performance one of a kind. Born from the difficulty of getting musicians to rehearse, his live performances in Miami were often complete improvisations. "That’s where the magic is for me," Brooklyn says. "To just open your mouth and listen to what God might have me say. The better I sound, the better the song is, the more humble it makes me."  His new album, Answer The Call will be available in stores and on-line in June 2008. Meanwhile he continues to record and perform around the world. He may currently be seen on MTV Italia in DJ Jad’s video for "By My Side"

Isaac Young Quartet
Confirmed
Jazz musician, Isaac Young, bridges the gap between jazz idioms, blending the tradition of bebop to electric fusion into his own unique sound. Young has been performing a mixture of fusion, bebop, funk and traditional jazz throughout New England since 2001. One of his first professional venues was the Ryles Jazz Club in Cambridge, MA, where as lead saxophone for Jazz In V he opened for World Leaders, a group known for its international jazz fusion sound.  Eager to impart his love and knowledge of jazz and music in general to the next generation, Young teaches saxophone, flute, clarinet, piano and jazz improvisational techniques both in West Hartford and privately throughout New England.
 

Deon Mose
 
 

There are many gospel artists that have yet to get national acclaim. Some of America’s greatest gospel artists languish in virtual anonymity. Deon Mose is that female gospel artist that can turn any church service into a revival with her singing.

A Poet is one who is especially gifted in the perception of expressing oneself both beautifully and lyrically. Deon Mose exceeds this definition. She sings with an anointing that touches all that listens to her. With her ongoing continuous to minister freedom in Christ , she has been truly blessed to reach masses of people for Christ.

"Rarely a so expressive voice mixes its deep and soft accents with very refined programming obtaining a so beautiful result. Deon Mose’s voice comes from her deep heart and is strongly influenced by her blood and brain, finding the right way to put together perfectly electric and acoustic, music and words, performing and listening."
