Corinne

Born: March 7

Corinne is an era-blending, genre-bending artist with a jazzy vibe  — a vocalist who blurs the line between yesterday and tomorrow. Her sound is cinematic and sultry, weaving deconstructed bossa nova, lush jazz harmonies, and pop hooks into something irresistibly modern.

Think 1962 Manhattan cocktail bars colliding with today’s indie scene. The music feels timeless like standards you’ve never heard before.

Sant Andreu Jazz Band

Active since: 2006

The Sant Andreu Jazz Band is a Barcelona-based orchestra founded in 2006, made up of young musicians between the ages of 6 and 21. Every year, two or three members leave and new ones join. More than 90 young musicians have been part of the SAJB. Most of them are now professional musicians, and some have international careers, such as Andrea Motis, Rita Payés, Èlia Bastida, Alba Armengou, Joan Mar Saqué, among others.

The organization was founded and is led by Joan Chamorro. We are a non-profit project where the members of the youth orchestra pay nothing for rehearsals, individual lessons, or the albums we record. We receive no official funding and are able to do what we do thanks to concerts and support from individuals who love our project.

July 4, 2025

For July 4th, America's birthday, I thought The Hi-Lo's Happen to Bossa Nova (Reprise), from 1963, would be a fitting Backgrounder. It's summery, breezy and my favorite Hi-Lo's album. Arranged by Chuck Sagle, the Hi-Lo's are in top form and in sync with the surfy feel of the bossa nova, BG/G. That's short for “Before Getz/Gilberto," ...

Darryl Alexander Sr.

Chances are that if you have listened to Saturday Night Live, Good Morning America, The Weather Channel, E Entertainment, Lifetime, Fox Business, Maury Povich, or listened to music while flying, you have heard music by jazz artist/producer Darryl Alexander. His dream growing up was to be a professional baseball player and would lead to scholarship offers from numerous universities, including Boston and Capital University.

At Kent State University, Darryl dropped his pursuit of baseball and became a member of a band which featured “In Living Color” and “Comedy.TV” comedian AJ Jamal on keys.
