Celebrate Women’s History Month when Jazz973 Presents Nadine LaFond at Clements Place Jazz

Vocalist and songwriter, Nadïne LaFond illustrates with performances that feel more like stirring storytelling sessions mixing diverse styles, cultures, and languages to set the tone. Moving from original tunes to soulful Jazz Standards to arrangements of her favorite “crusty” Blues to Haitian roots to pure Experimentation and Poetry, she and her band take audiences on a haunting and poignant journey.

Nadïne’s solo recording debut, Wisdom Child, features eleven original tracks mixing styles like blues, jazz, rock, Caribbean roots and experimental that create a unified sound across a chronicle of songs about transforming adversity into light as inspiration to keep moving beyond struggle.

Whether on festival stages or in intimate listening rooms, Nadïne connects deeply with audiences through her engaging presence, fearless voice and distinct sound, which she honed over the years as a jazz vocalist at open jams in New York then as backing vocalist for several rock/funk and jam bands, as vocalist/percussionist member of Pan African ensemble, Wogbledoe, and as lead vocalist / co-songwriter with Swampadelica. Currently writing and bringing to life “all those crazy ideas” she’d been working to articulate for years, Nadïne is developing several projects that best express the many classic roots to abstract sounds now coming through.

On Monday, December 10, 2018, Olympic medalist & Pro Boxer Shakur Stevenson, New Jersey Hall of Fame Boxing Coach Wali Moses along with CEO Robyn Moses were special guest at the Stevenson Moses Boxing for Life Ringside for a Cause Benefit. The Event was held at Primavera Lounge of The Wilshire Grand Hotel.

The purpose of the benefit event was to raise awareness and support for the work being done by the Stevenson Moses Boxing for Life not-for-profit organization. The event was co-hosted by CC Minton, the Stevenson Moses Boxing for Life Board President and Gregory Burrus, Local Live Music Ambassador and Promoter at the Wilshire Grand Hotel Primavera Lounge.

Live Music Nat Adderley Jr and Darryl Clark

Round 1 of the evening kicked off with a live music performance by Grammy Award Winning Artist, Songwriter, and Pianist Nat Adderley, Jr. along with dynamic jazz fusion Bassist Darryl Clark. Stevenson Moses Boxing for Life Board members Kenny Jones, Yusef Suliman and (name) spoke with attendees about the organization’s mission and its’ ongoing commitment to guiding young people. Yusef made it clear that “We have to encourage our kids, support, and get behind them. We at Stevenson boxing will give kids a chance to watch someone go from not knowing how to do something to knowing how to do it and give them the opportunity to compete all over the world if they choose too” .

Round 2 of the evening’s main event was an intimate conversation with the Stevenson Moses Boxing for Life leadership. This interview was excellently moderated by Stephanie Hutton, Board President of the Junior League of Montclair-Newark, Inc. Round two gave us an opportunity to get up close and personal with Robyn, Wali and Shakur as they expanded on the group’s vision, how it all came about, its importance to the community, what’s happening now and we also gained insight in to the future of Stevenson Moses Boxing for Life.

“It takes a village and that is why we use boxing as a tool to reach the kids,” said Coach “Wali”. Robyn expressed her commitment to the community and believes that education is just as important as the tools that boxing provides to young people.

Literally flying in from the 2018 Elite and Youth National Championships and Junior and Prep Open held in Utah, Shakur Stevenson landed and arrived to join the ringside conversation and clearly agreed that Boxing made a big difference in his life supporting the fact the discipline and direction it gave him makes him know he will never give up on any goal he chooses to pursue.
