During his career, Mike Wade was named one of the top ten unsigned jazz brass players, as rated by Jazziz Magazine (1997). His composition, “Blues for Shorty Bop,” was chosen for inclusion in the Jazziz on Disc collection. He has performed and recorded with such artists as David “Fathead” Newman, Clark Terry, Javon Jackson, Bobby Watson, Gary Bartz, Mulgrew Miller, Rene Marie, Don Braden, and Steve Wilson.
Steve Wilson has said of Mike, “Mike Wade has secured his place among the legacy of great trumpeters…people get ready!” Mulgrew Miller has said of Mike, “Mike Wade is a very exciting and creative jazz trumpeter. He is also a very charismatic bandleader. He is dedicated and ambitious. It was a pleasure to play with him”.
Craig Bailey has said of Mike, “Mike Wade is one the most inspiring musicians of the new millennium. He has the fire and energy that it takes to be a great leader as well as a great artist. His hustle ability on and off the horn will take him to many new horizons. He is a name not to forget and a trumpet player not to miss.”
Jessica Lynne Moon is a Nashville, Tennessee native and a long-time resident of Cincinnati, Ohio. A classically trained vocalist, worship leader, actor and entertainer, for almost 30 years Lynne has shared her gifts in churches, concert halls, and other illustrious venues throughout the United States and Europe. While her roots are in classical and sacred music, Lynne has also lent her vocals to locally and nationally acclaimed jazz, blues, and r&b artists. Her versatility is evident as she flows seamlessly between genres with a voice that has been described as smooth and sweet, yet powerful. Friends have jokingly said, "Lynne can sing the phone book", but whatever she is singing, you'll know it's from the heart.
