Snap on 2&4 w/ Kevin Whalum
Please join us on Friday, October 9 at 8pm for jazz vocalist Kevin Whalum in his Snap on 2&4 debut!
Kevin Whalum grew up in Memphis in the shadow of Olivet Baptist Church, where his father, the Rev. Kenneth T. Whalum, served as pastor. The church, known as a magnet for great singers and musicians (including brother, renowned jazz saxophonist Kirk Whalum), became a centerpiece of Kevin's life as a youngster, creating both a religious and a musical foundation for him. A popular live and session vocalist in Nashville, Kevin appeared on brother Kirk's "The Gospel According to Jazz, Volume 1" (1997) and "Romance Language" (2012) among others, and has released two solo albums, "Timetable" (2003) and "One Life To Love" (2008). Kevin's rich tone and impeccable vocal technique have most recently wowed Nashville audiences as part of NJW's "Jazz On The Move" presentation of the music of Billy Strayhorn. See the clip below of Strayhorn's "Lush Life" for a taste of this incredible performance.
Whalum will be joined by Roland Barber (trombone), Lori Mechem (piano), Roger Spencer (bass), and Nioshi Jackson (drums).
