N-Motion Entertainment presents
Jazz Intervention Project
~ Featuring ~

BRIAN SIMPSON
with Special Guest
ELAN TROTMAN


N-Motion Entertainment will be presenting the Jazz Intervention Project featuring Brian Simpson with special guest Elan Trotman and the Central Catholic High Jazz Band on Saturday May 21, 2016 @ 7:00 pm at the Hill House Kaufmann Center, 1835 Centre Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15219.     


Inspired keyboardist, composer, prolific studio musician and producer Brian Simpson is a master of all he purveys. His eloquent approach to playing, sophisticated harmonics sense, bluesy overtones, R&B flavor and keen sense on how to craft a song that stands the test of time have made him the go-to man for many. Through the years Simpson has been revered for his unparalleled ability to compose unforgettable melodies and irresistible grooves. I never approach two songs the same way, confesses Simpson. When someone hums your song, it's the melody they are humming so as important as the groove is, the melody is still king.

Simpsons soulful approach to the music has made him first call for many including Janet Jackson, Teena Marie, George Duke, Stanley Clarke and Dave Koz, for whom he has had the distinction of being musical director for close to two decades. A chart-topping musical chameleon who wrote the #1 R&B hit The First Time for Surface in the 1990s, Brian Simpson has a knack for churning out genre-bending timeless anthems. George Duke once said What I love about Brians playing is his understanding that melody and groove are important. Simpsons approach is simple, Im following in the footsteps of those that laid the foundation of contemporary jazz music. The fusing of jazz and R&B is just what contemporary jazz is all about.

Also appearing as special guest will be saxophonist Elan Trotman, one of jazzs most thrilling and emotive performers who stands out and pushes boundaries as a composer, performer, teacher and recording artist.  Born and raised in Barbados, he is by far one of the most exciting up-and-comers among a new generation of saxophonists in the world of contemporary jazz. 

Trotmans playing, though inspired by Grover Washington, Jr. and Kirk Whalum, among others, displays his own fresh ideas and distinctive tone. So much so that the New England Urban Music Awards named him best male jazz performer and has been nominated for Boston Music Awards in the jazz category.
