Kick off a weekend of romance with the original Blue Eyed Soul Singer, Bobby Caldwell. One of the most revered vocalists and songwriters on the contemporary music scene – with live performances that are nothing less than electrifying – we just had to have him sail with us for this very special show.

Drawing from his vast repertoire of rousing R&B, intimate smooth jazz numbers, and big band songs, Bobby has the ability to entertain at any venue, for fans of all ages.

As a singer, he has a successful career with numerous solo releases, which have earned accolades far and wide. His songwriting skills have earned hits not only for himself, but also for well-known artists like Chicago, Boz Scaggs, Peter Cetera and Amy Grant, Neil Diamond and Al Jarreau.

Bobby’s timeless classic, “What You Won’t Do For Love” has been recorded and sampled by more than 100 artists, including rendition by Boys II Men. Reaching an all-new audience, it was sung by Elliot Yamin in 2006 during the Final 3 round of that season’s American Idol. A sample of Bobby’s “Open Your Eyes” appeared in the Grammy nominated platinum rap hit “The Light” by Common. All combined, Bobby’s songs and samples have contributed to over 40 million sales, with artists as diverse as Tupac Shakur, Michael Bolton, Roberta Flack, Go West, Vanessa Williams and Notorious B.I.G., all paying tribute to the blue-eyed singer in the slouch hat. Major motion picture and television credits have brought Bobby’s music to even broader audiences and his songs and albums have been released in the USA, Japan and throughout the globe, and have been enjoyed by millions of fans.

Cruise with us — and someone you love — on Friday, February 10th and kick off a Valentine’s weekend of love. What better way that with the romantic sounds of one of the industry’s most respected artists!

Anita Baker will be a headliner at the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival on April 25th, and has just started work on a new album in Nashville, planned for release by Blue Note Records later in 2010.

“I’m going to Nashville to mix it up, shake it and see what comes out” says the eight-time Grammy winner with obvious glee. Baker will be producing the album with George Duke, Nathan East and Daniel Moore, recording in Nashville in part because, she explains, “they still know how to make a record in analog.”

In addition to some of the best country and R&B session players around, the album will also include Baker’s collaboration with Snoop Dogg on a “big, lush” version of Curtis Mayfield’s “Give You My Love” that she promises “is going to raise eyebrows.”
