Interview with Jazz Singer, Tony Hightower

Singer/Actor Tony Hightower Is On A Mission To Lure Young Genration Into Jazz

So here’s the story……We were minding our business in the media tent of the 2022 Atlanta Jazz Festival when we looked out and saw a familiar face. It was our buddy , so immediately I ran out the tent to go say hello. We interviewed Tony Hightower many years ago on When We Speak TV, so it was cool to see him again. After speaking with him, I found out that he was performing with Kathleen Bertrand, which was very exciting to hear…….what was even more exciting was when I found out that he was releasing his second album.

“Good melody and grooves are good melodies and grooves no matter what genre.”

Support The Royal Krunk Jazz Orkestra’s New Recording

Greetings All, We are The Royal Krunk Jazz Orkestra. We are getting set to record the follow up, or “prequel” to last years recording “Pyramids” This new recording is entitled “The Sirius Mystery” and takes place many thousands of years before “Pyramids”. It is part 1 of our trilogy that will end in 2021 with the sequel to “Pyramids”. The Royal Krunk Jazz Orkestra is wholly original from concept to execution. Our music is the living embodiment of “Ancient Future” We strive to educate, illuminate, and entertain at the highest possible levels. As you know, financing a large ensemble is very expensive. As the leader of our group this responsibility falls to me. Trust me, It’s not easy asking for help, but in today’s music business we are left with very few favorable alternatives. We hope you will contribute to our campaign. Thank You.

JUNE 24, 2017- JULIE DEXTER- JAZZ IN THE ALLEY

If you have been a follower of When We Speak TV for a some time, then you know exactly who Julie Dexter is. Julie Dexter is not only a wonderful person and vocalist, she was also the first concert I went to when I moved to Atlanta. Since the first moment I watched her performance, I knew I really enjoyed this lady. Then, a few years back, I got the opportunity to have Julie on When We Speak (my talk show) which was supa dupa nice because Julie was so warm and full of knowledge that I didn't want to stop speaking with her. Since then, I've followed Julie along her career and whenever I can, I try to attend her shows as often as possible.

However, the reason for this post is to inform you of her show coming up in Norcross, Georgia, at Jazz In The Alley. I can't wait!!!! Not only is When We Speak TV an official partner of Jazz In The Alley but how cool is it that June 24th is my birthday and Julie Dexter, a When We Speak guest will be performing on that day!!! So YOU definitely have to come out to downtown Norcross, Georgia on June 24th and celebrate with me!!! I'll be working, getting footage and stuff but that doesn't mean you can still come and enjoy the FREE concert!!! And I will always find time to take pics on my birthday with everyone!!!!! So make plans to meet us in downtown Norcross, Georgia, on June 24,2017!!!!!! Don't Forget....IT'S FREE!!!! So come enjoy!!!
