    JOHN BEASLEY GRAMMY-NOMINEE PIANIST / COMPOSER / ARRANGER ******************************************************************************************* “Beasley, the one-time keyboardist for Freddie Hubbard and Miles Davis, reflects a variety of generational influences, incorporating the emphatic chordal clusters of Herbie Hancock, the rhythmic quirkiness of Monk and the lush intelligence of Art Tatum into a highly refined personal voice.” --Los Angeles Times ******************************************************************************************* BIOGRAPHY Grammy-nominated recording artist John Beasley’s music career spans three decades. LA Times jazz critic Bill Kohlhaasee describes Beasley’s music and playing as "a variety of generational influences, incorporating the emphatic chordal clusters of Herbie Hancock, the rhythmic quirkiness of Monk and the lush intelligence of Art Tatum into a highly refined personal voice.” His credits cross the spectrum of the entertainment world: performing, recording, and touring with major jazz, pop, and world artists; composing for hit-TV series; arranging for ensembles and orchestras; working on award-winning films and commercials. With the popularity of reality singing TV shows, Beasley has taken the helm as Music Director for major studio shows. Highlights of Beasley’s multi-track career include: • Pianist/Keyboardist for Miles Davis, Freddie Hubbard, Chaka Khan, Carly Simon, Christian McBride, Dianne Reeves, Kenny Garrett, Stanley Clarke, Lee Ritenour, even a stint with James Brown, Barbra Streisand,

  • He Song Is Audrey! One of the Brightest Emerging Stars in Jazz
    A Bio "..Wow! Audrey Shimkas, she can REALLY SING!" he song is Audrey! --Jules Broussard, S F Bay Area jazz One of the brightest emerging legend stars in jazz today. She’s a captivating performer with a singular sound and style, pioneering her own path as a uniquely placed artist. T Anyone who has ever heard Audrey sing responds to her warmth, her sensuality and her emotional expression. Audrey is a singer’s singer who takes risks. She surprises and thrills with notes that push a melody to new heights. Audrey’s choice of material is eclectic and fascinating; she improvises unique transformations inside familiar jazz tunes; introduces fresh interpretations of favorite pop tunes and melts into Brazilian rhythms as if she were inside the song itself. When Audrey interprets a song—whether it’s a ballad-story or an up-tempo romp; a blues lament or a Latin groove; a swing standard or a soul oldie--the experience is always fresh and exciting. Long before Audrey thought about being a vocal artist, she recalls that at a young age she was mesmerized by June Christy in concert. That experience remained a cameo, locked in her imagination, until music began to play a serious part of her life. A native of New York, Audrey was classically trained on piano; she played acoustic folk and electric rhythm guitar during the folk- rock generation of Dylan and the Beatles. She studied dance (ballet and jazz) and acting (ACT, Actor’s Workshop, etc.) and spent several years on stage in New York and in San Francisco.

  • Boston Globe, March, 2006
    The Boston Globe March 17, 2006 She breaks down musical boundaries Luciana Souza sings with no fear, winning respect of her peers Three of Luciana Souza's four most recent CDs have earned her Grammy nominations, including ''Duos II," which this year was edged out for best jazz vocal album by Dianne Reeves and the ''Good Night, and Good Luck" soundtrack. But Souza's not a big star yet by any means. What popularity she has remains largely confined to the jazz cognoscenti and her fellow musicians, the latter of whom seem uniformly to adore her. High on the list of things they admire about Souza is her willingness to take risks. Consider the rapid-fire unison lines she sings with guitarist Romero Lubambo on ''Duos II," the album they'll likely draw heavily from in their Bank of America Celebrity Series double bill with Joe Lovano tomorrow night at Sanders Theatre. Souza, 39, and Lubambo have been playing together for a decade. But while they've built up a large repertoire of material over the years, they rarely have occasion to practice together beyond sound checks. It can sometimes come back to haunt them in concert, Souza admits. ''We have a way of doing them that hopefully comes out clean," Souza explains, laughing. ''Some nights we get into trouble, but even that is exciting for the audience. You try your best, and sometimes it succeeds. Sometimes we fail miserably, and we go back and go, 'Here we go one more time,' and just try again in front of people.

BILL HOLMAN NEA Jazz Master (2010) Interviewee: Bill Holman (May 21, 1927 - ) Interviewer: Anthony Brown with recording engineer Ken Kimery Date: February 18-19, 2010 Repository: Archives Center, National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution Description: Transcript, 84 pp. Brown: Today is Thursday, February 18th, 2010, and this is the Smithsonian Institution National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Masters Oral History Program interview with Bill Holman in his house in Los Angeles, California. Good afternoon, Bill, accompanied by his wife, Nancy. This interview is conducted by Anthony Brown with Ken Kimery. Bill, if we could start with you stating your full name, your birth date, and where you were born. Holman: My full name is Willis Leonard Holman. I was born in Olive, California, May 21st, 1927. Brown: Where exactly is Olive, California? Holman: Strange you should ask [laughs]. Now it‟s a part of Orange, California. You may not know where Orange is either. Orange is near Santa Ana, which is the county seat of Orange County, California. I don‟t know if Olive was a part of Orange at the time, or whether Orange has just grown up around it, or what. But it‟s located in the city of Orange, although I think it‟s a separate municipality. Anyway, it was a really small town. I always say there was a couple of orange-packing houses and a railroad spur. Probably more than that, but not a whole lot.
