Raul Midon and Richard Bona- 7:30pm -doors 6pm
It's rare that an artist arrives onto the pop music scene so fully loaded with the kind of hit-making potential that singer-composer-guitarist Raul Midon possesses. The New Mexico born, New York based Midon, made his recording debut with State of Mind, which garnered critical accolades for its heady fusion of old-school soul, Latin, jazz, and timeless singer/songwriter folk-pop.
       
6/25/11 sheryl crow Sheryl Crow: 100 Miles from Memphis - 8:30pm- doors 7pm For Sheryl Crow, the title of her 7th album isn't just a location, it's a state of mind. "I grew up in a small town 100 miles from Memphis, and that informed not only my musical taste, but how I look at life," she says. "The music that came out of that part of the world is a part of who I am, and it's the biggest inspiration for what I do and why I do it." The album evokes a time when soul and passion filled the radio waves, when the sweat and joy of recording a session could be captured forever on wax.
       
6/26/11 hudson Jennifer Hudson - 8:30pm- doors at 7pm
Every decade of so a new voice emerges that is transcendent, timeless. For this new decade that voice could very well be Jennifer Hudson. With her high-powered, soulful style, the Chicago native has already achieved feats that are reserved for most young singers' dreams. The former American Idol contestant nabbed a much-deserved Academy Award for her unforgettable role as "Effie" in Dreamgirls.
       
7/2/11 Wynton Marsalis Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis 8:30pm Wynton Marsalis has been described as the most outstanding jazz musician and trumpeter of his generation, as one of the world's top classical trumpeters, as a big band leader in the tradition of Duke Ellington, a brilliant composer, a devoted advocate for the Arts and a tireless and inspiring educator. He carries these distinctions well. His life is a portrait of discipline, dedication, sacrifice and creative accomplishment. Intelligent, hard swinging interplay has made Marsalis' bands the favorite among jazz musicians and audiences worldwide.
