SUMMARY:Eric Darius\, JJ Sansaverino with Four80 East
DESCRIPTION:With a trademark jump and crowd-captivating energy throughout his live show\, Eric Darius is breaking the mold of modern jazz. The Billboard chart topping\, American saxophonist\, songwriter\, producer\, and performer shines in a vibrant new light as he reinvents himself through ‘Unleashed’\, an expansive and ambitious genre-spanning album brimming with passion and purpose\, soul and sweat\, charisma and charm. “It’s called Unleashed because I wanted to push myself out of my comfort zone on this project and truly unleash my full musical potential in a live studio setting\,” Eric shares. “This album is an honest reflection of myself and my growth both musically and personally over the past several years\, and it really takes the listeners on a musical journey from start to finish! This album feels like it’s the first time I’ve truly expressed myself in every single way in a musical sense and I’m unleashed like never before. Unleashed is a long time coming for Eric Darius\, and without a doubt his proudest work to date. He credits part of that achievement to the creative freedom he’s gained as an independent artist; Unleashed is Eric’s second album released through his own label SagiDarius Music\, following 2018’s Breakin’ Thru. \n  \nOver the past several years\, guitarist Joe “JJ” Sansaverino has reached millions with his music\, touring the United States\, Canada\, Europe\, Africa\, Asia\, the South Pacific and the Caribbean. He has worked with the best in the business in a wide range of idioms\, both live and in the studio\, and has appeared on hundreds of recordings. Now\, with the release of his debut album Sunshine After Midnight\, JJ puts forward a stunning selection of his original compositions\, with the help of a stellar array of musicians\, producers and special guests. Sunshine After Midnight is a diverse showcase of original guitar styles—including R&B\, jazz\, rock\, fusion and JJ’s trademark ballad style—featuring many of NYC’s finest musicians. Teaming up with powerhouse producers Alex Valenti (NYC) and Zé Luis Oliveira (Rio de Janeiro)\, JJ has fused urban beats and Brazilian flavor with fresh horn arrangements\, giving the album a radio-friendly\, street-savvy sound with a virtuosic edge. An accomplished composer\, arranger and musical director\, JJ was playing trumpet and violin by age 11 and the guitar by age 13. Growing up in and around New York\, JJ’s diverse influences—Santana\, Hendrix\, as well as jazz\, Motown and doo-wop—helped mold his unique style. After performing locally in NYC for several years in the early Nineties\, JJ embarked on his first European tour with the popular alternative rock band Heads Up. Upon returning to the States\, he attended Berklee College of Music in Boston\, while returning to NYC every weekend to perform original music with his own band. While enrolled at Berklee\, JJ was the first and only artist to write an original piece for the well-known Singer’s Showcase (an all-cover music revue)\, and in his senior year he arranged a medley of Sting’s music performed for Sting and Nancy Wilson at Berklee’s 1994 commencement ceremonies. Majoring in commercial arranging\, JJ graduated cum laude and won the prestigious 1994 Writing Award of the Year. JJ returned to NYC and began performing nightly\, quickly earning a reputation as one of the hardest-working musicians on the scene. It wasn’t long before he started appearing and recording with artists like George Clinton\, Kelly Price\, SuperCat\, Shabba Ranks\, Monty Alexander\, the Jungle Brothers\, Rita & Kymani Marley\, and Toots and the Maytals\, and recording TV jingles for clients including Mercedes Benz\, 1-800-flowers and Citibank. He eventually settled in as lead guitarist for Maxi Priest in 2000\, immediately embarking on the first of several world tours. In his time back in the States\, JJ continued to perform in a variety of musical settings\, while laying down tracks for numerous artists and recording his own compositions in the studio. JJ Sansaverino & Nu Jazz continue to perform while simultaneously preparing for the recording of his sophomore album  “Waiting For You”. This project is a perfect follow up to “Sunshine After Midnight” delivering a continuous array of color full mood provoking music with a few guest special guest appearances. \n  \nFour80East\, the Toronto-based electro-jazz duo\, combines electronic and live elements in their groove-centric music. Rob DeBoer and Tony Grace\, the masterminds behind hits like “Noodle Soup”\, Eastside” and “Cinco Cinco Seis” have captivated audiences worldwide with their innovative and soulful musical compositions. They debuted in 19997 with “The Album” and have since released nine studio albums and a dynamic double live album. Their latest 2023 single “This Time Around” off the new album “Gonna Be Alright” soared to #2 on the Billboard Contemporary Jazz chart. The group’s ability to connect with listeners emotionally and transport them into a world of musical storytelling contributes to their international popularity. Four80East has recently toured in Spain\, Portugal and Mexico. The duo has also moved to a new creative space\, Speed of Sound Studio\, in the countryside\, signaling new innovative directions for their music. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Godspell: The Musical
DESCRIPTION:Godspell was the first major musical theatre offering from three-time Grammy and Academy Award winner\, Stephen Schwartz (Wicked\, Pippin\, Children of Eden)\, and it took the world by storm. Led by the international hit\, “Day by Day\,” Godspell features a parade of beloved songs\, including “Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord\,” “Learn Your Lessons Well\,” “All for the Best\,” “All Good Gifts\,” “Turn Back\, O Man” and “By My Side.” \nA small group of people help Jesus Christ tell different parables by using a wide variety of games\, storytelling techniques and hefty doses of comic timing. An eclectic blend of songs\, ranging in style from pop to vaudeville\, is employed as the story of Jesus’ life dances across the stage. Dissolving hauntingly into the Last Supper and the Crucifixion\, Jesus’ messages of kindness\, tolerance and love come vibrantly to life. \nBoasting a score with chart topping songs\, a book by a visionary playwright (John-Michael Tebelak) and a feature film\, Godspell is a sensation that continues to touch audiences. \n
