SLIM MAN

Slim Man won Best Jazz Vocalist in 2021 at the Coachella Music Awards. Fifth  year in a row. Winner! Winner! Meatball dinner!

The Slim Man LIVE at Vicky’s double CD won ALBUM OF THE YEAR at the Coachella Music Awards in 2021.

And his new cookbook, Slim Man Cooks Volume 2, was just released in January 2022.

 So, how did Mr. Man get to this point?

 Here’s the skinny on Slim Man…

 Conceived on the Isle of Capri in Italy, he was born in Baltimore, Maryland.

 When he was 5 years old, Slim Man saw a movie with his dad. That film was The Five Pennies, and when Slim Boy saw Louis Armstrong play the trumpet and sing, he told his Dad, ”That’s what I want to do.”

 Slim Man studied trumpet for the next 9 years, and taught himself how to play piano and guitar. After studying piano, composition, and harmony at Peabody Institute in Baltimore, MD, Slim Man got signed as a songwriter to Motown Records. He’s had songs recorded by the Temptations, Angela Bofill, Carl Anderson, and others.

 Slim Man recorded a CD for Motown, which gave birth to his signature style–a unique blend of jazz, soul, and pop.

 Slim Man went on to form the band BootCamp, who had two of the first 100 videos ever played on MTV. Those videos catapulted BootCamp into a successful concert career, performing with The B-52s, Squeeze, Split Enz, Johnny Winter, and others.

 After BootCamp broke up, Slim Man organized and hosted a nationwide country music talent contest. It was during this contest that he got the nickname Slim Man. Slim’s big discovery during the contest was in Tulsa, Oklahoma, at a honkytonk called Tulsa City Limits.

 The guy who won the contest that night was Ronnie Dunn, who went on to win the national finals in Nashville, and later hooked up with Kix Brooks to form the multiple Grammy award-winning country music duo, Brooks and Dunn.

 After the Marlboro contest, Slim Man released his debut CD End of the Rainbow. This CD made many Top Ten lists for the year, and inspired JD Considine (Rolling Stone) to write…

Nils Jiptner Tickets 

Dave Koz – I’m a big fan of his, I’ve been playing his music on the radio. Great quality, great musicianship, lots of heart and soul.

Jonathan Widran – “ Nils has been an urban jazz hit-maker, with his songs lingering in the top of the charts seemingly forever because they are all so picture perfect, melodic, infectious and grooving. Nils is an exciting player whose recordings achieve the rare feat of capturing the excitement he generates on stage.

Phil Perry – ” I especially like Nils’ light-fingered-luster approach to guitar playing. It was a joy to work with him.”

Guitar virtuoso Nils has been one of the most successful forces in the Contemporary Jazz genre. With 4 number 1 Hits in the Billboard Smooth Jazz charts, including the Song of the Decade 2001-2010 “Pacific Coast Highway” and the Song of the Year 2011 ” Jump Start”, he stands out amongst his peers. “His CD ‘Jazz Gems – The Best of Nils’ could easily be titled “The Best of Contemporary Jazz” and it is pure joy and exhilaration reliving these masterfully composed and produced hits.” As songwriter and producer he used his “Midas touch ” to provide hits for many artist in this genre, including Lisa AddeoGeorge BensonBrian SimpsonReza KhanAlvin PopeTony Saunders to name a few.

Earl Thomas’ gospel rebirth

Earl Thomas retired from music in late 2019 — or so he thought. The award-winning San Diego blues soul singer and songwriter had toured the world multiple times, released a slew of albums and seen his songs recorded by Etta James, Ike Turner and other earthy American music luminaries. He seemed content to spend his time working as a dental technician in La Jolla.

But an invitation to perform a series of Sunday gospel concerts at Humphreys Backstage Live this year saw the Tennessee native spring back into action. As the leader of Earl Tomas & The Gospel Ambassadors, featuring Sister Leola, his electrifying performances led to an invitation to appear with his band at famed London jazz club Ronnie Scott’s as part of the 2023 London Jazz Festival.

A rousing new album, “Church Songs,” was released this fall, and Thomas’ Nov. 12 London performance was recorded for an upcoming live release. He and his band now have an international booking agent and have already been booked for concerts in Scandinavia next summer.

“I felt like I was phony doing the blues,” Thomas said in a September interview with the Union-Tribune. “Now that I’m doing gospel, I feel completely legit. This is where I live.”

Saxophonist Elan Trotman, has quickly become one of jazz’s most thrilling and emotive performers as he continues to stand out and push boundaries as a composer, performer, teacher and recording artist. Trotman’s playing, though inspired by Grover Washington, Jr., Kirk Whalum and Najee, displays his own fresh ideas and distinctive tone. So much so that the New England Urban Music Awards, and The Barbados Music Awards both named him Jazz Artist of The Year on multiple occasions.

.Swingin’ Cocktail Rock….The good times will roll…
The Fab Lushes are on to something good with a tight, upbeat, roots-rock sound.
Internationally road tested (7 Europe Tours) and proven, their songs end up on TV, Radio and in Movies. Members of the band have played with: BB King, Taj Mahal, Ray Charles, George Thorogood, Keb Mo, John Hammond Jr., Robert Cray and performed on The Late Show with David Letterman. 
They brilliantly pay homage to an eclectic mix of styles, but always stay true to American blues roots.
The rockin’ grooves build solidly, and so does the party.
