SUMMARY:Jaja’s African Hair Braiding - A Broadway Hit
DESCRIPTION:May 17 – June 15 | Mandell Weiss Theatre \nBy Jocelyn Bioh | Directed by Whitney White \n\n\n“Hot and hilarious… prepare for laughter.” The New York Times \nDirect from Broadway\, this dazzling production welcomes you into Jaja’s bustling shop in Harlem\, where a lively and eclectic group of West African hair braiders create masterpieces on the heads of neighborhood women. During one sweltering summer day\, love will blossom\, dreams will flourish and friendships will be tested. When their uncertain circumstances boil over\, this tight-knit group must confront what it means to be outsiders in the place they call home. \nThe Guardian called it “rapturous\,” and The New York Times raved\, “full of treasurable moments\, when the drama feels tightly woven with the comedy.” Featuring humor as entertaining as its characters\, this extraordinary Tony Award-winning play by Ghanaian-American playwright Jocelyn Bioh celebrates courage\, community and the indomitable spirit of women. Jaja’s is a must-see for San Diego.

SUMMARY:Melanie Fiona
DESCRIPTION:Don’t ask her to define it. Singer/songwriter Melanie Fiona’s debut album The Bridge reveals a sweet push-and-pull between countless elements of herself. At once Canadian and Caribbean\, strong and sexy\, contemplative and joyous\, blending the sounds of pop and soul. Despite the many moods and musings of Melanie Fiona’s debut\, there is one defining element. The girl’s got soul.”The album is called The Bridge\,” enthuses Fiona. “It crosses the barriers between ethnicities\, genres\, age groups\, and genders. It can’t be defined as just one thing. It’s got a soul that’s something old\, yet something new.” The album reflects the duality that asserts itself in Melanie Fiona’s own exuberant personality. Flirting with the traditions of classic soul from artists like Sam Cooke\, Nat King Cole and Gladys Knight\, the songs also pack the punch\, and authenticity of modern music. United by a singular passion\, Melanie Fiona’s sound bridges past and present with an artistic and consistent blending of classic soul samples. It’s all held together by a unique quality\, something that is innately her\, much like the other artists she mentions as influences: Bob Marley\, Sade\, and Patsy Cline.Born to Guyanese immigrant parents and growing up in a music-filled house in the inner city of Toronto\, Fiona knew from the very beginning that music is what moves her. “My mother\, who shares my love for music\, played everything from The Ronettes to Whitney Houston around the house as I grew up. My father would let me sit on the stage while he rehearsed with his band as a guitarist. “That strong sense of family translates to the team she’s now surrounded herself with\, including Carmen Murray and Michael Michel of Title 9 Productions and managers Jay Brown and Tyran “Ty Ty” Smith of Roc Nation “I am so fortunate that I had people to educate me and show me that development as to what it really is to be an artist.”Though Fiona had been writing her own songs for years\, the introduction of songwriter Andrea Martin\, would prove seminal for The Bridge. “When I met Andrea\, it was an instant connection\,” she explains. “We developed this very personal working relationship where we were both inspired by each other.” Sharing each other’s life experiences\, they collaborated on some of the defining songs in the collection. Other producers on the album include UK producers Future Cut\, Florida’s Vada Nobles\, LA’s The Stereotypes\, NYC’s J. Phoenix\, Peter Wade\, and Salaam Remi\, Andrew Wyatt\, Rob Fusari\, and Angela Hunte. Fiona also shows off her Caribbean roots on Reggae Gold 2008\, with Supa Dups’ “Somebody Come Get Me”.”This experience will never happen for me again\,” she muses. “I’ll never be a new artist again. I’ll never be a complete and utter student of the game.” Whatever may come when The Bridge releases on Steve Rifkind’s SRC/ Motown Universal Records in Spring 2009\, Fiona is poised and ready. “I still live humbly out of a suitcase\, and I appreciate the smallest things in life\, and I want people to feel that. I have an opportunity to be on a stage\, but I want my listeners to know that I’m just like them.”

SUMMARY:TROMBONE SHORTY & ORLEANS AVENUE with JJ Grey & Mofro and Dumpstaphunk
DESCRIPTION:…TROMBONE SHORTY & ORLEANS AVENUE with JJ Grey & Mofro and Dumpstaphunk \nABOUT THE CONCERT \n\n\nGrammy®-winning horn player Trombone Shorty puts a New Orleans spin on everything he plays. Prowling the stage with his band\, Orleans Avenue\, he delivers an explosive performance blurring the lines between funk\, jazz and R&B. \nPlease note: the San Diego Symphony does not appear on this concert.. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout JJ Grey \n\n\nFrom his early days playing cover music behind chicken wire at a west side Jacksonville juke joint while still working at a lumberyard\, to playing sold-out shows at some of the largest venues and music festivals in the world\, JJ Grey has always delivered his soul-honest truths. Since his first album\, Blackwater\, back in 2001\, Grey has been releasing deeply moving\, masterfully written\, funkified rock and front porch Southern soul music. \n\n\nAbout Dumpstaphunk \n\n\nDumpstaphunk stands out amongst New Orleans’ best\, cementing themselves as one of the funkiest bands to ever arise from the Crescent City. Born on the Jazz & Heritage Festival stage\, and descended from Neville and Meters family bloodlines\, these soldiers of funk ignite a deep\, gritty groove that dares listeners not to move. Their performances combine ingenious musicianship through complex funk\, rock and jazz arrangements accompanied by soulful melodies and Big Easy traditions. \n\n\nPre-Paid Parking \n\n\nAce Parking has provided a DEDICATED PARKING PURCHASE PAGE for this event.
