SUMMARY:Jane Monheit
DESCRIPTION:Jane Monheit is a jazz and adult contemporary vocalist with a deep passion for the Great American Songbook. With many highly acclaimed solo albums\, countless awards and accolades\, and over two decades of international touring experience\, Jane has not only been an extremely successful bandleader\, but has had the privilege of making music with some of the greatest musicians\, arrangers\, and producers in jazz. \nDuring her childhood\, Jane studied woodwinds and piano\, spent a decade performing in award winning choirs\, and participated in community theater on Long Island. Throughout all of this\, her focus remained on jazz\, especially interpretation of the Songbook. At the age of 20\, during her senior year at the prestigious Manhattan School Of Music\, Jane placed second in the Thelonious Monk Competition\, now known as the Hancock Competition. This led to an incredible career trajectory\, catapulting Jane into the jazz stratosphere nearly overnight. \nBy 22\, Jane was working with legends such as Tommy Flanagan\, Ron Carter\, and Kenny Barron\, recording her first albums\, and touring the planet. This led to collaborations with jazz luminaries such as Terence Blanchard\, Ivan Lins\, Tom Harrell\, John Pizzarelli\, Christian McBride\, Vince Mendoza\, Jorge Calandrelli\, and many more. Countless television appearances followed\, including David Letterman\, Conan O’Brien\, CBS Sunday Morning\, Good Morning America\, The Tonight Show\, The View\, and many popular international talk shows. Several successful film soundtracks have also included Jane’s music\, including Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow and Never Let Me Go. \nAfter more than twenty years\, twelve studio albums and countless recorded guest appearances\, Jane has continued to tour the world nearly nonstop\, including playing iconic venues such as Carnegie Hall\, The Hollywood Bowl\, and headlining at nearly every legendary jazz club on the planet\, most notably NY stalwarts such as the Village Vanguard and Birdland. In addition to touring\, she also writes English lyrics for Ivan Lins\, and uses the knowledge and experience she has gained both at Manhattan School Of Music and on the legendary bandstands of the world to educate and uplift students worldwide. Jane resides in Los Angeles with her husband of over twenty years\, drummer Rick Montalbano\, and their son.

SUMMARY:Nathan East & Noah East Duo
DESCRIPTION:In April of 2025 Nathan East & Noah East released their debut full length album Father Son which received rave reviews and for which they have been touring. \nA founding member of the chart-topping contemporary jazz group Fourplay\, Nathan East was 16 years old when he got his first break and found himself on the road with Barry White. The next time the phone rang\, Quincy Jones was on the line. The calls kept coming and for the last forty years\, East has been churning out hit songs with artists as legendary as Eric Clapton\, George Harrison\, Michael Jackson\, Daft Punk\, Phil Collins\, Whitney Houston\, Beyoncé\, Barbra Streisand and Stevie Wonder. \nHis genre-crossing groove has earned him both the recognition – a Congressional Record for his contributions to the worldwide music community\, for one – and the boundary-busting respect of his peers. Nathan’s self-titled debut album was released in early 2014 and earned two Grammy Award nominations and featured the recording debut of his then 13-year-old son Noah East on a duet of The Beatles classic “Yesterday”. Noah has gone on to tour the world as an in-demand studio and touring musician and member of The Cream of Clapton Band a tribute to Eric Clapton\, occasionally featuring his father. \nSmoothJazz.com Quote on the Father Son Album\n“With inspiring originals and beautifully re-imagined covers\, the forthcoming studio instrumental project focuses on the intimacy of the jazz duo and trio format as recorded by Grammy-winning producer Moogie Canazio at Los Angeles’ legendary EastWest Studios. While this is the younger East’s first release\, his performance level on piano and mad skills on the Hammond B3 will introduce a new voice to the jazz community\, one that is both heartfelt and soulful with his famous father laying down his signature grooves\, moves and runs. Catch the dynamic East duo live!” \nDrummer David Hawkins has performed and collaborated alongside some of the most respected artists and bands on the music scene\, including Branford Marsalis\, ELEW (Eric Lewis)\, Philip Harper\, JD Allen\, Joey Calderazzo\, Bobby Watson\, Johnny O’Neal\, Calvin Keys\, Sharay Reed\, among others. He has toured the world \, and regularly appears at iconic venues such as Birdland\, Sony Hall\, Dizzy’s\, Smalls\, Minton’s Playhouse\, among countless others.
