SUMMARY:BELLA JOAN - jazz singer/songwriter
DESCRIPTION:Bella Joan is a dynamic jazz singer/songwriter who weaves jazz\, soul\, blues\, and R&B into a sound that swings while both dreamy and bold. Born in Milwaukee\, WI\, and later raised in Vermont’s Green Mountains\, she grew up in a musical family and started singing and songwriting in handmade books at an early age\, revealing her natural ear and spontaneity. \nHer voice moves like a spell- smooth\, soulful\, silky\, scat\, raw emotion\, and fearless improvisation. Fronting her band\, formerly known as Bella and The Notables\, she brings fire to the stage and depth to every note. As a board-certified music therapist\, she sees music as both ritual and remedy. \nHer debut album\, Bella Joan\, recorded at the iconic Tank Studio and arranged/co-produced by Sam Atallah\, is a vivid portrait and genre-blending journey rooted in jazz and reaching for the cosmic\, raw and real\, with fire and grace.  \nIn October 2025\, Bella has a mini album tour with shows featuring standards and originals. Shows are booked in New Orleans\, Louisiana (at 30/-90 and The AllWays Cabaret Lounge & Cabaret) with the Bob Gagnon Quartet (Steve Sawyer\, Josh Smith\, Norbert Susemihl)\, in Montreal\, Quebec (at La Petite Marche) with Bob Gagnon and Rob Duguay\, in Burlington\, Vermont (at The 126) with Bob Gagnon\, Tom Teare\, and Brent Thomas\, and in Milwaukee\, Wisconsin (at Bar Centro) with Keith Johnson and Aaron Johnson.

SUMMARY:OUTER LIMITS DUO - Juli Wood & Kim Zick
DESCRIPTION:Drummer Kim Zick and saxophonist Juli Wood have performed together over the years in many configurations. As the Outer Limits Duo\, the MRS. FUN drummer and onetime R&B Cadets saxophonist (living now in Chicago) ventures to places explored by jazz avant-gardists such as Archie Schepp and Max Roach in a relentless sonic assault. \nTheir new album\, Carnival of Souls\, was recorded at Milwaukee’s DV Studio with Zick’s partner in MRS. FUN\, Connie Grauer\, producing. Carnival of Souls includes nine live improvisations by Zick and Wood plus renditions of three Grauer compositions\, including “Judy\,” “Cecil’s Waterfowl Ranch” and the melodically gorgeous “Zoila\,” which suggests something Henry Mancini might have written for a film that audiences never saw.

SUMMARY:MEET THE SEAVERS
DESCRIPTION:Like absinthe in a baby bottle\, the music of Meet The Seavers is unexpected.  They don’t fit in and they like it that way.  Meet the Seavers is an unusual musical duo known for their eclectic and unique sound\, blending elements of jazz\, swing\, vaudeville\, and more.  Comprising husband-and-wife team Jace Kent and Dorothy Gilmore /Seavers\, they formed in Nashville\, Tennessee\, though they’ve recently returned to Jace’s hometown of Manitowoc\, Wisconsin. Their music defies easy categorization—often described as “New Avant-garde Swing” by fans—featuring fearless original compositions with odd time signatures\, hypnotic basslines\, and stunningly poetic lyrics.  The duo’s most stripped-down and popular setup includes Jace on upright bass and vocals\, Dorothy on vocals\, and the occasional use of a theremin\, creating their one of a kind\, captivating sound. They also perform as a quartet with added horns and percussion or as a full big band\, showcasing the versatility of their compositions\, all scored for larger ensembles. Their performances are theatrical\, blending music with a vaudeville-inspired flair\, complete with humor\, dramatic flair\, and a larger-than-life stage presence. \nFrom 2014 to 2019\, Meet the Seavers hosted and produced their own musical variety TV show\, “The Meet The Seavers Show\,” which aired in Nashville and various U.S. cities. Dubbed a “21st-century Sonny and Cher\,” the show featured their music\, comedic skits\, and guest artist performances\, reflecting their playful dynamic as a couple. It’s still accessible on YouTube and has been pitched to larger networks. \nJace brings a rich musical background\, having played bass for a large Black gospel choir in Chicago\, written lyrics for a subsidiary of Island Records\, and led a jazz-poetry big band in Nashville in the ‘90s. His original musical comedy about the Spanish Inquisition: “Throwing Stones at the Sun” is currently under production with a world premier slated for mid-2025.  Dorothy\, originally from a small Mississippi town\, was a tomboy /athlete-turned-prom-queen who later became an accomplished model\, actress\, and award-winning bikini bodybuilder. Together\, they’ve crafted a sound and persona that’s wholly their own\, marked by originality and a refusal to conform.  They don’t align with mainstream genres like country\, jazz\, Americana\, or pop\, and they embrace their outsider status with pride.  Whatever they are\, it’s unique and wonderful.
