WASHINGTON, DC: VINX QUARTET - AMERICAN CROONER TOUR AT BOHEMIAN CAVERNS
The Vinx Quartet - American Crooner Tour - makes a stop at BOHEMIAN CAVERNS (2001 Eleventh Street N.W., Washington, DC - 202-299-0800) on Thursday, January 8th at 7:30 pm. Vinx is undoubtedly one of the most gifted improvisational vocalists performing today. With style that ranges from jazz to funk, bossa nova to blues and back again, audiences are hooked from the start. The combination of soaring vocals, intricate layered melodies and grooves, and that primal hand drum holding it all together makes VINX a stand out among world class vocalists. For the American Crooner Tour, Vinx is joined by his trio that includes Scott Kinnison on drums, Scott Kiefner on upright bass and Andre Vasconcelos on guitar. Featuring some of his favorite standards that evoke the days when low toned baritones ruled the night, as well as original compositions that pay homage to the genre, the American Crooner Tour celebrates VINX's first love•singing. Vinx has recorded and toured with some of the music industry's greatest icons: Stevie Wonder, Sting, Herbie Hancock, Sheryl Crow, Branford Marsalis, Ernie Watts, Taj Mahal, Ricki Lee Jones, Darius Rucker, Vance Gilbert, Cassandra Wilson, Brenda Russell, Cher and numerous others. His songwriting credits are a long list ranging from Tom Jones and Will Downing to The Lion King and Sprite. He currently teaches at the Berklee College of Music and Dreamsicle Arts & Entertainment Group is home to his production company and acclaimed workshop series.
WASHINGTON, DC: CHRIS THOMAS KING AT BLUES ALLEY
Chris Thomas King, a determined progressive, will perform at BLUES ALLEY(1073 Wisconsin Avenue NW, Washington, DC - 202-337-4141 - ) on Thursday through Sunday, January 8th through 11th with shows at 8:00 & 10:00 pm. King is hoping to reinvigorate the blues as a living African American art with a more contemporary approach and adamantly refusing to treat it as a museum piece whose "authentic" forms needed careful preservation. King eventually modified that approach to a certain degree, attempting to create a more explicit link between blues tradition and the general musical present. Chris Thomas King is a New Orleans Grammy Award-winning musician and actor who is initially known for his audacious fusion of blues and hip-hop. King reached a whole new audience with his film debut in the Coen Brothers film, O Brother, Where Art Thou?, not only appearing on the award-winning soundtrack, but establishing himself as a serious dramatic actor as well. There is a $24 cover. copyright 2015 - See cabaret listings from all over the world at CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE
