SUMMARY:OKAN
DESCRIPTION:Fusing Afro-Cuban roots with jazz\, folk and global rhythms in songs about immigration\, resistance and love\, OKAN takes their name from the word for heart in their Afro-Cuban religion of Santeria. With vocals in Spanish\, English and Spanglish\, OKAN is led by the Cuban-born violinist and vocalist Elizabeth Rodriguez and percussionist and vocalist Magdelys Savigne\, both Grammy and Latin-Grammy nominees. \nHaving recently worked with Bomba Estereo\, Lido Pimienta\, and Dayme Arocena\, OKAN’s Juno-winning sophomore release Espiral debuted in first place on Canada’s !Earshot charts and was included in NPR’s top 10 Alt Latino and CBC Music’s top 20 of that year. \nPassionate advocates for freedom of expression\, queer rights and gender equality\, OKAN has gained a reputation for their powerful live performances\, which showcase their incredible harmonies\, virtuosic musicianship\, potent lyrics as well as an unfailing ability to connect with audiences on a deep emotional level. \n \nEmbracing genres that have not historically fostered women artists outside of the role of singer\, OKAN co-leaders have faced many challenges. Magdelys talks about the obstacles she faced in pursuing percussion in her native Cuba and how “coming out as a percussionist” to her family. was as big a deal as coming out as queer. Part of the next wave of Cuban women composers and multi-instrumentalists\, Elizabeth and Magdelys bring a fresh perspective to Latin and world jazz fusion through their powerful harmonies\, elevated musicianship and provocative but playful lyrical content. \nBorn in Havana\, Cuba\, Elizabeth Rodriguez is a classically trained violinist who served as concertmaster for Havana’s Youth Orchestra. Magdelys Savigne hails from Santiago de Cuba and graduated with honors in orchestral percussion from Havana’s University of the Arts. \nCalled “lush and vibrant\, urgent but specific and deeply intentional” by CBC Music\, OKAN’s second album Espiral delved deeper into the group’s rich Cuban roots\, finding renewed inspiration in this powerful musical heritage. The Santeria influences aremost evident in the title track\, which uniquely blends guajira\, the folk genre of Eastern Cuba\, with Santeria-derived chants. \nA new album\, Okantomi\, to be released in the fall of 2023\, includes special guests as classical violinist Lara St. John\, leading figures in Cuban jazz\, Dayme Arocena and Elmer Ferrer as well as the legendary Afro-Cuban percussionist Amado Dedeu. \nOfficial showcases at SXSW\, Folk Alliance International\, Mundial Montreal\, Contact East\, Folk Music Ontario\, Pacific Contact\, Ontario Contact and Global Toronto have led to invitations to perform across Canada and the U.S. with stops at The Kortright Centre (Vancouver)\, The Grand (Calgary)\, Hermann’s (Victoria)\, Passim (Boston)\, Old Town School of Folk (Chicago)\, Cal Performances (Berkely)\, as well at the Blue Skies\, Mariposa\, Toronto Jazz\, Exit Next\, Nuit D’Afrique\, Harrison and Middlebury festivals\, to name just a few.

SUMMARY:Nikki Hill w/ Gem Series Opener The Café Unit
DESCRIPTION:Nikki Hill is sweet seduction\, sweeter threat\, and smoldering energy. An original force in American music\, she is tender and tough\, flamboyant\, witty and dangerous. To put it plainly\, Hill brings daggers back to the stage and studio. Overlapping soulful\, sensual and bold vocal tones with powerful chrome-plated riffs and swagger\, her voice finds a home in it – a soul singing\, bar rocking\, roots revivalist\, that writes with frank self-reflection at a dancing tempo. \nHailing from Durham\, North Carolina\, Nikki Hill enjoyed R&B\, soul\, pop and hip hop at home. In addition\, she sang gospel in the church choir from childhood through her early teenage years. Gradually\, she developed her ears for garage rock\, rock n’ roll\, blues and roots\, while also picking up influence from living along the legendary Mississippi River – in St. Louis\, Missouri\, New Orleans\, Louisiana\, and currently Memphis\, Tennessee. In Nikki’s mind\, a fertile mix of all the different types of music she had heard arose\, and gradually these merged into something quite special\, as she found her own voice\, which the world was gradually introduced to on her many constant tours\, where she took more and more audiences by storm with her distinctive vocals and energetic stage performance. \nAfter self-releasing and producing her debut album\, Here’s Nikki Hill\, her musical contributions continued\, with her song “Struttin’” released on Deke Dickerson and The Bo-Keys Soul Meets Country EP\, produced by Scott Bomar in Memphis\, TN. The momentum continued through the release of her second album\, Heavy Hearts Hard Fists\, recorded at Fort Horton Studios in Wyldwood\, TX. The acclaimed album was accompanied by a worldwide tour in the US\, Europe\, Australia\, India and Morocco\, and over 30 festivals\, including Montreux Jazz Festival\, Monterey Jazz Festival\, and Byron Bay Blues Festival\, receiving praise for uplifting the new songs with an erupting live performance. \n“Think Tina Turner fronting AC/DC and you’ll have half of the picture. She’s a machine…you’ve got no excuse if you miss seeing her… Nikki Hill is a revelation\, her band masters of rocket-fueled bluesy swing\, her voice the beacon which calls you home… a vocal powerhouse who don’t mess around.” (Rolling Stone). \nHill’s current touring band is Matt Hill (guitar)\, Laura Chavez (guitar)\, Nick Gaitan (bass)\, and Marty Dodson (drums). On Nikki Hill’s third self-produced and self-released album\, Feline Roots\, she lets her soul rip. Nikki and her band take a muscular groove — celebrating and wailing over love\, transgressions\, the hard times\, and wild freedom — and inject it with timeless effect\, giving Nikki a foundation on which to build. \nIt’s her version of rock n’ roll that can only come from her stories. Nikki Hill has never been afraid to take the road less traveled\, and it’s clear with “Feline Roots” that she’s living every word. \n \nProjects Unlimited Gem Series Opener: The Café Unit\nThe Café Unit is a group of “Seasoned Players” who share a common vision\, influence\, and ear for live performance and music. The Café Unit is laid back AND The Café Unit is upbeat. Ideal for any Dancing\, Good Listening\, Party environment\, Venues Large and Small\, the Band incorporates songs and styles from a variety of genres and eras. Blues\, Rock\, Country\, from Golden Oldies to Present Day Music\, Nothing Is Off The Table
