So when they hear that trouble is brewing around a small-town prom, they know that it's time to put a spotlight on the issue...and themselves. The town's parents want to keep the high school dance on the straight and narrow - but when one student just wanted to bring her girlfriend to prom, the entire town has a date with destiny. On a mission to make a difference, the Broadway stars team up with the courageous student, leading to a transformation that brings everyone together in the name of love and acceptance.

An Evening with Love: "The Sound Of Feeling" Live Recording Session!

Raymond J. Spence, drums & bandleader
Camille Scott, keyboards
Sheritta Harris, vocal
Jordan Estevao, bass

The Storage Unit Collective was established in 2016 by Raymond J. Spence in Hampton Roads Virginia. The uniqueness of the name is correlated to the space this collective would rehearse. Frequently while playing, fellow musicians would stop by to collaborate. With that in mind, Spence created the collective to offer a space for musicians to organically create without the stress of committing to a group. While many musicians have collaborated since the inception of the collective, its core members are: Raymond J. "Toxic" Spence, Sheritta “Love” Harris, Camille "C.Jai" Scott & Jordan "Pimpspy" Estevao.

The United States Naval Academy Band proudly presents a performance of the iconic jazz album Birth of the Cool. This concert celebrates 2026 as the 250th year in the history of the United States of America and the 100th anniversary of the birthday of one of the most important and influential American musicians, Miles Davis (1926-1991). The ethereal, and at times mysterious, Birth of the Cool arrangements by Gil Evans, Gerry Mulligan (and others) featured Davis surrounded by a distinct instrumentation, including the non-common jazz instruments of French Horn and Tuba. Join us as we commemorate 250 years of the United States, America's classical music, and the centennial of this iconic American artist, Miles Davis!

The United States Naval Academy Band was formed in November of 1852 by order of the Secretary of the Navy. The band’s primary mission is to provide musical support to the Superintendent, Commandant, and Brigade of Midshipmen. These dedicated professionals are known across the nation as “The Navy’s Oldest and Finest Band!” Our members have studied at prominent music schools and conservatories nationwide and have extensive experience in performance and teaching. The Naval Academy Band takes pride in representing the Naval Academy’s tradition of excellence.

This is a FREE admission show, but advance reservations are strongly recommended.

Greg Hatza, organ
Peter Fraize, saxophone
Brian Kooken, guitar
Robert Shahid, drums

In 1994, Greg met Joey DeFranscesco who told him the Hammond B-3 was enjoying a popular renaissance. He formed the Greg Hatza ORGANization and has been performing and recording on the instrument non-stop since that time. With the trend towards more advanced electronic keyboard and rhythms now, Greg adapted to the trend, switching from the Hammond B-3 to the electric keyboard and piano.

In the late sixties, Baltimore was still an organ town and had its share of great players. It was here that Greg really got a chance to hone his jazz organ skills by playing with the best musicians in town. Lenny’s club was a great stopping point for national jazz artists who came to Baltimore to perform. He also met and got to play in jam sessions with such personalities as Kenny Burrell, Groove Holmes, Damita Joe, Philly Joe Jones, Roland Kirk, Les McCann, James Moody, and Sonny Stitt.

Obasi Akoto and prominent members of the Greater Baltimore & Washington, D.C. Jazz Community will lead us in world-class performances almost every Tuesday, 7-10pm. Surround yourself with great company, soul lifting music, and wonderful food!

"Her celestial vocal register and authentic lyrics place her in a lane that few can occupy." — Soulbounce

Savor an angelic and romantic evening with DC-based vocalist and songwriter Cecily, (pronounced ses-suh-lee), who is known for her agile soprano and honest lyrics. Her sound, as soothing as it is rich, is rooted in a deep appreciation for mid-century soul and jazz, 90’s R&B, and re-imagined folk music.

“I Am Love,” released in October 2023, is the first single from Awakening Pt.II, Cecily’s eagerly anticipated continuation of the critically acclaimed Awakening Pt. 1. The album interweaves Cecily's life experiences with inspiration from the book All About Love by Black feminist writer Bell Hooks. The single specifically focuses on the importance of affirmations, as discussed in the text, with the heart – and title – from the track rooted in the power of reminding yourself: “I Am Love.”

“ONE OF THE MOST RIVETING YOUNG IMPROVISORS IN NEW YORK” - NY TIMES

Enjoy a moment in love with saxophonist Brent Birckhead, an award-winning artist, whose aesthetic is an intersectional amalgam of traditional and popular styles. Unbound by genre, Birckhead’s approach to woodwind artistry is driven by his compulsion for creative risk and deep respect for legacy. Educated at Howard University (BME, MM), Birckhead was named best blues/pop/rock soloist and outstanding instrumental jazz soloist by Downbeat Magazine as part of the annual Student Music Awards. The Baltimore native's talent earned him the honor of performing and touring with legendary artists including Lauryn Hill, Nas, Wale, Eric Benet, Larry Graham, George Duke and many more.
