Wendy B

Wednesday Ball is a consummate professional. A dynamic vocalist comfortable in many styles, including R&B, dance, and smooth jazz, she has contributed vocals to a GRAMMY award-winning recording. She has shared the stage with many national acts. Born and raised in San Antonio, Texas, where she continues to teach, Ms. Ball received a Music Education degree from St. Mary's University before embarking on her career as a recording artist.

In recent years, Wednesday has performed in and around San Antonio at various clubs and music festivals as a solo headliner or with her band “Wednesday Ball &The Show.” She is also an in-demand vocalist for national touring acts. She has shared the stage with some of the industry’s most accomplished talent, including GRAMMY winners Joe Posada and Roger Velasquez, Billboard R&B #1 hit trumpeter Tom Browne, and blues saxophonist Mindi Abair. Additionally, she has recorded or performed with contemporary jazz stars Steve Oliver, Slim Man, Marion Meadows, Marc Antoine, Will Donato, Kyle Turner, and Billy Ray Sheppard. This past July, Wednesday opened the 26th Annual Balcones Heights Jazz Festival.

Wednesday’s debut album "Breakaway," released in 2018, was co-written and produced with Billboard hit smooth jazz guitarist Steve Oliver and features notable musicians in the format, including saxophonists Will Donato and Chase Huna along with vocalist Shon “Demo” Reddick. The album has been recognized as a crossover R&B / smooth jazz release and has received airplay on many stations around the country, including San Antonio’s smooth jazz radio host David Munoz.

In late 2018, Ms. Ball was recognized for her vocal contributions to the Roger Velasquez & the Latin Legendz album "Tex Mex Funk," which won the GRAMMY for "Best Tejano Album."


Sol!

The Name SOL! is perfect for this artist, and it's evident when he picks up a microphone and mesmerizes his audience! The Artist SOL! has had a very successful career singing for some of the greats in the industry, like Lalah Hathaway, Patti Austin, Will Downing, Gerald Albright, Maysa Leak, and Phil Perry, to name a few.

You understand the name of Sol's new CD, "UPFRONT," because now it's his turn to come up front and show the world a different side of himself. This recording takes you on a trip to a wonderland, so hold on tight!

The first track features The Sax master Gerald Albright on "THAT'S THE WAY THAT I FEEL" and it has the most addicting groove you have ever heard and of course the Track "I WANT YOU IN MY LIFE" just makes you feel good all over and you keep playing this track over & over as it takes you on a smooth ride.

So in closing I think it's best to let your ears be the judge and get ready to be blown away!
