Chris Standring hat Gitarre studiert und schon in seinen Anfangsjahren vor allem klassische und Jazz- Gitarre gespielt� Aus seinem umfangreichen musikalischen Background schöpft der Musiker seine me- lodischen und harmonischen Fähigkeiten� Standring wuchs in der kleinen Stadt Aylesbury in England auf, bekam ein Stipendium für das London College of Music (wo er mit dem National Youth Jazz Or- chestra spielte) und schrieb Musik für BBC, bevor er 1991 nach Los Angeles zog� Nachdem er sich dank zahlreicher Club-Gigs in der heiß umkämpften zeitgenössischen Jazz-Szene vor Ort etabliert hatte, tat er sich mit Rodney Lee zusammen� Unter dem Namen Solar System arbeiteten sie 1996 gemeinsam an dem gleichnamigen Album, das sich noch stark an Acid Jazz orientierte� Gleichzeitig verfeinerte Stan- dring seinen R&B-getriebenen Jazz-Sound, der später auch sein Markenzeichen werden sollte� 2008 gründete er sein eigenes Plattenlabel Ultimate Vibe Recordings und machte sich fortan einen Namen im modernen Urban Jazz-Genre mit ansteckenden Hits: „Cool Shades“ („Velvet“ 1998), „Hip Sway“, „Ain‘t Mad Atcha“(„Groovalicious“ 2003), „I Can’t Help Myself“ („Soul Express“ 2006), „Love & Paragraphs“ (2008) und „Oliver‘s Twist“ („Electric Wonderland“ 2012)� Seitdem lebt Standring immer mehr auch sei- ne Leidenschaft für unkonventionelle, letztlich aber erfolgreiche Alben aus: wie „Blue Bolero“, dessen Single „Bossa Blue“ zum #1 Billboard Contemporary Jazz Song des Jahres wurde� Im März 2014 kehrte er mit „Don’t Talk, Dance!“ zurück: Ein durch und durch europäisch-progressives Projekt mit Einflüssen aus Soul-Jazz-Dance, das er mit den besten Funk- und Soul-Studio-Musikern aus Los Angeles aufgenommen hat� Inspiriert vom Funk- und Soul-Stil der 70er Jahre hat er ein Album ge- schaffen, zu dem man unmöglich still sitzen kann� Die erste Singleauskopplung „Sneakin‘ Out The Front Door“ erreichte die #1 der Billboard Smooth Jazz Songs Charts� CHRIS STANDRING Discography Don‘t Talk, Dance!

    Thank you for attending this very special edition of ‘Alumni Shares: Stories From the Park’ panel series. Not only will you have front row seat to the first time these talented ladies from Prince’s New Power Generation band have converged together publicly, you’ll be a part of healing. 100% of todays event proceeds will benefit New Power Generation keyboardist, Chance Howard, who zigzagged the world playing keyboards alongside Prince for nearly 100 sold out shows and has been a working musician most of his life. He is now, however, recovering from a very serious car accident that resulted in 12 broken ribs, a severed aorta and a severely damaged spine. While Chance is recovering in a rehabilitation facility, learning how to walk again, your donations to the GoFundMe his bandmate and friend Candy Dulfer created, as well as your well wishes and participation here today have served to lighten his spirits and financial burden in these tough days. We thank you. PRN Alumni Foundation was founded by former Prince employees with the mission to continue the quiet generosity of their global superstar boss. We support our colleagues in times of crisis, kids music/tech and art programs as well as food sustainability and confidence programs. Just as Prince did. Learn more about us at PRNAlumni.org Cora Dunham began her musical journey at Kashmere High School under senior William Portis and at church under Mamie L. Johnson.
