SUMMARY:BLKBOK
DESCRIPTION:Born and raised in Detroit’s inner-city\, BLKBOK (born Charles Wilson III)\, grew up in a music-filled house and by the time he was 8\, BLKBOK was an acclaimed piano prodigy\, winning statewide accolades and college-level competitions. When it came to music\, most of the kids he grew up with pursued hip-hop\, adopting rap names. However\, it’s no coincidence that Charles chose the name BLKBOK\, which echoes that of one of the greatest pianists and composers of all time. The tag is also an apt reflection of the elements that have contributed to the artist’s identity and symbolizes his colorful journey from pop and hip-hop culture to his critically acclaimed\, neo-classical debut album Black Book\, and various Mixtape projects and collaborations. \n​BLKBOK’s live\, high-energy performance is culturally reflective and seeks to entertain with a live piano based performance like none you have ever seen before. BLKBOK’s vision is to illuminate awareness for all\, encouraging dialogue and counterpoint in the way we perceive ourselves and the world we live in together. \n​BLKBOK’s critically-acclaimed debut album Black Book\, served as a founding cornerstone at the very first Juneteenth Foundation’s Freedom Concert and was re-released as a DLUX Edition in June\, with two new tracks\, Forgotten Girls and Kendrick + Karine\, covering relevant topics in mainstream culture\, and in the voice that is uniquely BLKBOK.  His first Mixtape release\, CVRART\, and Mixtape project Angels Watching Over Me\, with world-renowned tenor Lawrence Brownlee\, illustrate the innovative and disruptive musical landscape that is BLKBOK. His original track Stars (Ad Astra) was performed as the first-ever piano duet from Space in April 2022.   \n​In 2025\, BLKBOK will release a highly anticipated mixtape and album\, continuing his mission to use music as a force for good and humanity. More than an artist\, he is a movement\, breaking barriers\, sparking dialogue\, and inspiring change through sound. \nVisit: blkbok.com

SUMMARY:Deborah Henson-Conant
DESCRIPTION:Deborah Henson-Conant performs internationally in concert halls\, theaters\, opera houses\, and private salons across the U.S. and Europe. Striding onto stage\, her harp strapped on as if it were one with her body\, a blend of human and instrument\, she pulls sounds from the strings that you would never have imagined could grace the instrument handed out at the Pearly Gates: from intimate ballads to Blues\, Flamenco and Latin inspired originals. All with a powerful singing voice\, humor and stories. \nShe fluidly shifts between solo shows and collaborative formats\, soloist with symphony and chamber ensembles\, and collaborator with dance companies\,  theatrical productions and other musicians. Henson-Conant’s work is characterized by its transformational\, intimate\, and virtuosic qualities that can be both funny and heart-stoppingly beautiful. \nUsing a looper pedal\, Henson-Conant weaves sound and rhythm-scapes spontaneously as she plays\, layering her harp\,  to create rich\, multi-dimensional\, alost symphonic solo performances\,   building complex musical textures in real-time\, creting depth from percussive harp techniques to vocal harmonies – she can create the effect of a full ensemble while maintaining the intimacy and spontaneity of a solo artist. \nVisit: deborah-henson-conant.com
