The Rippingtons - Over the past two decades, Russ Freeman & The Rippingtons have taken the stage thousands of times throughout the world with just one goal in mind: celebrating the joy of life and music with their ever adoring fans. Marking an incredible milestone in the history of smooth jazz, the band turns 20 years old this year, and invites fans all around the world to celebrate with The Rippingtons 20th Anniversary Tour.

Most bandleaders would satisfy themselves at such a juncture with a complacent look back and a greatest hits package, but Russ Freeman, true to his ever creative and innovative spirit as a composer and producer, had a more exciting idea: an all-star class reunion of sorts, gathering all Rippingtons recording and touring members past and present to alternate on ten brand new compositions and a sizzling medley featuring newly recorded snippets of nine classic Ripps cuts.

Mindi Abair - Why is life less ordinary for saxophonist/vocalist/composer Mindi Abair? Ask her fans from around the world — there’s not much ordinary about her. On Life Less Ordinary, her playful and sophisticated third release from GRP Records, Mindi Abair catapults her supercharged mix of pop, soul and jazz, — with its stellar melodies, insinuating rhythms, sultry sax, and seductive vocals — into the realm of the extraordinary.

For Abair, named the Best New Artist at 2003’s National Smooth Jazz Awards, it’s been a wild few years, and her 2004 follow-up disc Come As You Are — which dug into deeper emotional and stylistic territory while spawning two more hit singles — kept the momentum jetting skyward. Her songs have been featured on everything from Aaron Spelling’s hit “Summerland” to a Women in Jazz feature at the Grammys to Panasonic’s Jumbotron in Times Square. But as gratifying as these landmark career achievements are, that’s not what inspired her to view 2005 as a year in which she lived a “life less ordinary”.
