SUMMARY:BRIAN SIMPSON AND JACKIEM JOYNER - WBGO PRESENTS ALL THAT JAZZ
DESCRIPTION:Brian Simpson and Jackiem Joyner\nWBGO Presents All That Jazz\nat Hamilton Stage\nFriday\, January 17\n8 PMLOW TICKET ALERT!\nWBGO presents All That Jazz\, a unique series showcasing some of the genre’s most talented and respected performers! This month features smooth jazz musicians a Brian Simpson and Jackiem Joyner. This series is a partnership between UCPAC and Smooth Jazz NJ. \nEnjoy an evening of smooth jazz\, beginning in the WBGO Piano Lounge. Come early to enjoy cocktails and live piano music before the performance – doors open one hour before showtime. \nAbout Brian Simpson and Jackiem Joyner\nBrian Simpson\nKeyboardist and composer Brian Simpson has played alongside noted jazz musicians Gerald Albright and Norman Brown\, as well as performed a world tour with Janet Jackson – all shortly after graduating from Northern Illinois University. \nIn 1990\, Simpson received a call from George Duke that led to a decade of touring and production work with the late jazz legend. It was his tenure with George that led him to work with a variety of esteemed artists\, from James Ingram and Anita Baker to Dave Koz and Wayman Tisdale. \nBecause his music is so popular throughout the world\, Shanachie Entertainment recording artist Simpson has been on a seemingly endless world tour\, which in 2019 included Japan\, Australia\, Korea\, Indonesia\, the Philippines\, Spain\, the United Kingdom\, Portugal\, and South Africa. \nJackiem Joyner\nContemporary saxophonist\, author\, and music producer Jackiem Joyner has set the bar high in his nearly two-decade-long career as a performer. With a number one jazz album\, numerous Billboard chart-topping hits\, and a series of critically acclaimed books to his name\, Joyner has proven himself a rare artist capable of transcending his instrument and captivating mainstream audiences. \nNow\, as he enters the 18th year of his career amid unprecedented change in the entertainment industry\, Joyner remains as dedicated to his art as ever. \n“No matter how difficult things become\, I’ll never stop doing what I love: playing the sax\, writing music and stories\, and performing live.” \nBorn in Norfolk\, VA\, Joyner demonstrated restless creativity from an early age\, a trait that would later define his career. Despite his humble upbringing\, he managed to acquire a saxophone as a child\, which quickly became his constant companion. After years of practice\, he made his debut with 2007’s ‘Babysoul.’ A masterclass in seductive smooth jazz\, the album marked the arrival of a brilliant instrumentalist\, paving the way for a prolific recording career that included Grammy runner-ups\, hit singles\, and abundant critical acclaim\, extending through 2019’s ‘Touch’ and 2020’s EP\, “Journey of Passion.” \nAs a performer\, Joyner has toured over 30 countries and shared the stage with legends such as the late George Duke\, Marcus Miller\, Keiko Matsui\, Donnie McClurkin\, Angela Bofill\, Najee\, Kirk Whalum\, Peter White\, and many others. \n \nComing with a group of 10 or more?
