  • A Tribute to Aretha Franklin: the Queen of Soul Starring Damien Sneed and Karen Clark Sheard at the Florida Theatre on February 19, 2021
    A Tribute to Aretha Franklin: The Queen of Soul Starring Damien Sneed and Karen Clark Sheard at the Florida Theatre on February 19, 2021 Jacksonville, Fla. (June 15, 2020) – The Florida Theatre is pleased to welcome A Tribute to Aretha Franklin: The Queen of Soul starring Damien Sneed and Karen Clark Sheard on Friday, February 19, 2021. With a legendary career spanning several generations and a multitude of genres, Aretha Franklin truly earned her title, “The Queen of Soul.” Wrought in the Baptist congregations of Detroit, Franklin’s expressive and powerful vocals, complemented by skillfully executed yet profound piano melodies, propelled her to international stardom in the sixties. Beloved by musicians and listeners alike, Aretha is recognized as the most successful female recording artist in history with 112 charted singles on Billboard, 18 GRAMMY Awards, and over 75 million records sold. Aretha Franklin continued to perform well into the later years of her illustrious life. During this time, musician, vocalist, and composer Damien Sneed toured along with Aretha, developing a strong mentee relationship with the soul legend. In A Tribute to Aretha Franklin: The Queen of Soul, Sneed pays homage to the monarch herself with fresh renditions of her most cherished hits including “Respect,” “Knew You Were Waiting,” “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” “Precious Memories,” “Think,” “Until You Come Back to Me,” “Daydreaming,” “Freeway,” “Natural Woman,” and others. Backed by an accomplished cast of jazz, gospel, and soul musicians and vocalists, Damien Sneed’s multimedia tribute will be a tender and spiritual reflection upon the life of an iconic industry titan.

Show its consequences for what it can produce unhappiness, unwed mothers and fathers, and children born out of wedlock. Show its mirror for what it can reflect—dreams deferred, low self-esteem, and shame. Show its wounds for the health risks it brings—sexually transmitted diseases, HIV, and AIDS.

Sound Business: Great Women Of Gospel Music And The rT ansmission Of Tradition Abstract From the 1930s to the present, women have played instrumental and visible leadership roles in the remarkable growth of African American gospel music. Through both creative and entrepreneurial activities, these women paved the way for the expansion of an emotive sacred music expression from the worship practices of southern migrants to audiences around the world. This dissertation focuses on the work of three cultural trailblazers, Mahalia Jackson, Aretha Franklin, and Karen Clark Sheard, who stand out in the development of gospel music as virtuosic vocalists and pivotal figures whose sonic imprints can be heard both in sacred songs performed in churches and in American popular music. By deploying exceptional musicality, a deep understanding of African American Christianity, and an embrace of commercialism, the three singers have conserved and reworked musical elements derived from an African American heritage into a powerful performance rhetoric.

So, starting with a small circle of your life, where did you grow up? MR: I grew up in East Hartford, CT. We moved there when I was in 4th grade. JP: Ok. What is your earliest musical memory? MR: That’s a great question. The earliest musical memory that I can recall is being in 5th or 6th grade, and I had a music teacher at Hockanum Elementary School in East Hartford named Mrs. Godfrey, and she played a recording of “Think of Me”, from Phantom of the Opera, the original Broadway cast, followed by a recording of “Prima Donna.” When I heard “Prima Donna”, I was over-the-moon exhilarated by those high notes. They were glorious! JP: That’s great. Is your family musical? MR: Yes, and no. My grandmother, who passed away when I was four years old, I was told, was a very good singer. She sang in a choir, she was a soprano, she had solos. Then it (singing talent) kind of hopped around a few people. My aunt Toni actually is a fantastic singer. I also have a cousin, McKenzie, who is also a great singer, then me. Neither of my parents are very musical, although, my father, who probably wouldn’t like that I’m going to say this, my father can sing, and I don’t think he knows that I know he can sing, and I think he’s a high tenor at that.
