Gerald is currently curator of the “Unscripted Jazz Series” with special guests such as Kirk Whalum\, Raul Midón\, Alex Bugnon\, Maysa and Gerald Albright.  He is in the process of producing an album of Nina Simone’s music to add to his rich repertoire.  \n  \nCarol Riddick  \nThis sultry songstress/songwriter has graced stages from her hometown of Philadelphia and across the globe\, winning fans and admirers with her extraordinary voice and presence. Highly regarded in the music community for her vocal dexterity\, mesmerizing performances and genuinely warm personality\, Carol is a unique entertainer whose evolution is ongoing. \nBorn and raised in South Philadelphia\, music has been a part of her life since she was a teenager. It was in her early adulthood that the industry took notice of her vocal talent when she got her start touring with Will Smith and Jazzy Jeff. Since then\, Carol has blessed the tracks of many distinguished artists. She is featured on records by Anthony Hamilton\, Jill Scott\, Norman Brown\, Kindred the Family Soul and a host of others.

Her sophomore project “Love Phases” which includes the soul stirring single “Love Like I’ve Never Been Hurt Before” is a collection of songs expressing facets of the joy and hurt of love; whether it be with regard to romantic or self-love. In addition to her solo efforts\, Carol has also lent her impressive background vocal ability to musically acclaimed R&B crooner and Prince of Sophisticated Soul\, Will Downing’s\, live performances. Her performance of the riveting duet “Nothing Has Ever Felt”\, originally recorded by Will Downing and the incomparable Rachelle Ferrell\, is sure to take your breath away.
