(http://www.womenwhojam.com/) is a popular all female national music showcase and respected brand of live entertainment designed to provide a promotional outlet and gathering place for ground breaking female entertainers, including singers, musicians and poets who are often over looked by concert promoters, record labels, radio and the media. Women Who Jam! is an advocate and voice for female artists who are bucking trends, opening doors and shaping today’s music scene.

R&B Live (www.RandBLiveCharlotte.com) captures the essence of our favorite pastime music, dance and variety shows. The vibe and setting are a culmination of programs, such as early episodes of soul train, Donnie Simpson and Sherri Carter’s Video Soul, MTV’s Downtown Julie Brown, In Living Color and Arsenio Hall. The result is a concert like atmosphere that revitalizes the authenticity of the phrase “True Artist.”
