Jazz Christmas Musical Concert

I had the opportunity to put on a Christmas Program at Celestial Haven Baptist Church. The music department of the church sponsored this event to benefit the Noble E. Sims Multi-Purpose Community Center & Family Park. This community center is in remembrance of Deacon Noble E. Sims, and it’s a venue for the community to come and fellowship, minister, teach, rehearse, etc… The pastor of the church: James Foster invited me and Ryan Smith to coordinate the program and host it. We were the featured performers. I met the pastor a few months ago by Forrest Davis Jr. (saxophonist). Forrest plays at the church and uses the church to rehearse.

Ryan and I got together to coordinate the event. Since Ryan and I completed our album together (Faith, Hope, & Love), we decided to perform some tunes on our new album.  It was a perfect venue and time to perform our debut. We passed out information regarding our album and gave away FREE samples from the album so people could get the feel and idea of the CD. Forrest Davis Jr. was on program as well, and I included two other performers to sing. This event was an honor to do, and I’m looking forward in doing more events to benefit great causes in the future.
