SUMMARY:Cris Jacobs w/ The Way Down Wanderers
DESCRIPTION:Cris Jacobs w/ The Way Down Wanderers\nCris Jacobs\nFrom Baltimore comes Cris Jacobs — an unexpectedly gritty soul-blues singer and guitarist with outlaw country ethos. Blending a variety of musical traditions\, Jacobs creates a distinctive voice and sound of his own punctuated by emotive songwriting and explosive guitar playing. Equally at home playing heartfeltAmericana ballads or funky blues rockers\, Jacobs is known for his mesmerizing live shows\, where his improvisational guitar playing\, powerhouse band\, and deep reservoir of songs make each night a unique experience. \nNamed one of Rolling Stone’s “10 New Country Artists You Need to Know” in 2017\, Jacobs has collaborated with the Grateful Dead’s Phil Lesh and Dumpstaphunk’s Ivan Neville\, and earned opening slots on tours with Sturgill Simpson and Steve Winwood. \nWith three solo albums to his name\, a collaborative record with Ivan Neville aptly titled “Neville Jacobs”\, songwriting credits that include bluegrass artists Audie Blaylock and Frank Solivan\, New Orleans funksters Dumpstaphunk\,  and gospel legends Blind Boys of Alabama\, Jacobs continues to evolve and display his wide range of writing and performing prowess. “No matter the song”\, he says\, “I just like to keep it soulful and let the music speak for itself”.

SUMMARY:Will Downing
DESCRIPTION:Will Downing\nKleinhans Music Hall & Soul of Buffalo Present:\nWill Downing\nwith Special Guest\, Buffalo NY’s own\nWILL HOLTON\nThursday\, November 14\, 2024\nKleinhans Music Hall\nDoors at 6:30PM / Show at 8PM\nAll Ages / Reserved Seating\nWill Downing will appear with his full band (not the BPO)\n\nCelebrating an insane 35 years in the “bizness” and with 27 records to his credit\, Grammy-nominated R&B | Smooth Jazz singer Will Downing will not be stopped! Flexing on his international appeal\, lead single “What Part of My Love” from his new record Soul Rising shot to the top of the UK Soul Chart Top 30 and parked there. With recordings for Island\, Mercury\, Verve\, Motown\, Sophisticated Soul\, and Shanachie Records\, Downing is an industry veteran whose silky baritone has been compared to Luther Vandross and Brian McKnight. \nAbout Will Downing \nCareer highlights include the #1 R&B chart-topping album After Tonight (2007) and Classique (2009)\, which peaked at #22 on the Billboard 100. Downing’s collaborators include a Who’s Who of R&B | Soul | Jazz headliners: Jennifer Holliday\, Kool & the Gang\, Gerald Albright\, Billy Ocean\, Regina Belle\, and Maysa\, among others. \nWill Downing was born and raised in a working-class family in Bed-Stuy\, Brooklyn. His father was a skycap at a local airport and his mother was a schoolteacher. As a teen\, Downing was a member of a school choir. At age 16\, he sang publishing house demos for songwriters who couldn’t sing well\, earning $50 each. \nIn 1988\, he signed a recording contract with 4th & B’way Records and released his first solo album Will Downing. It included a cover version of the John Coltrane classic\, “A Love Supreme\,” which reached No. 4 on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs record chart. Downing switched to Island Records for his second release\, Come Together as One (1989). \nDowning moved to Mercury Records for his fourth outing\, Love’s the Place to Be (1993). All the Man You Need\, released on Motown Records\, received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Traditional R&B Album in 2000. It included “When You Need Me\,” a duet with Chante Moore. In 2002\, Downing received the International Association of African-American Music Diamond Award. \nIn 2023\, Will suffered a soul-crushing loss\, with the unexpected passing of his daughter Aron Siobhan Downing in January. As a father\, he was devastated…heartbroken. As an artist\, he sought solace and comfort through his craft\, facing the hurt head-on\, exploring multiple themes of love to begin healing. Persevering through the pain\, Downing’s soul is rising…literally! The Prince of Sophisticated Soul is proud to share his 7- song masterclass of triumph over tragedy\, Soul Rising! Although not a “concept” album\, the pieces of Soul Rising fit together beautifully as a single statement in honor and celebration of his eternal love for Siobhan.
