Robert Wilkins\, and Bukka White while re-evaluating the era.\n\nDirected by the daughter of one of the festival organizers\, The Blues Society is a kaleidoscopic documentary that asks viewers to draw their own conclusions about the events presented. Winner of an Audience Award at Indie Memphis and best Documentary at the Oxford Film Festival\,the film encourages viewers to ask questions about race\, music\, and American culture and to reconsider their preconceptions about Blues music\, Blues culture\, and Blues history.\n\nThis screening will be followed by a panel discussion with director Augusta Palmer\, appearing with iconic festival participants Jimmy Crosthwait\, Misty Blue Lavender (also known as Marcia Hare)\, and Chris Wimmer.

SUMMARY:Kafé Kirk: Kirk Whalum & Lindsey Webster
DESCRIPTION:Join Grammy-winning saxophonist Kirk Whalum for Kafé Kirk\, an ongoing jazz series in Crosstown Theater featuring musical and spiritual collaborations with special guest artists. This concert will feature legendary musician Lindsey Webster. \n\n \nGet Tickets Now \nLindsey Webster:\nA charismatic and stunning artist\, Lindsey Webster has established herself as a rarity in the world of contemporary jazz. With a soulful\, authentic\, and effortless voice\, she has successfully shaken up the male- and instrumental-dominated genre\, carving a unique path of her own. Soultracks once declared\, “If Carole King and Sade had a kid\, she would be Lindsey Webster.”\n  \nA native of Woodstock\, NY\, Webster grew up surrounded by music\, listening to her “loving hippie parents'” collection of Jimi Hendrix\, Beatles\, and Elvis Costello LPs. She was first a cellist\, studying at the prestigious Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts\, before transitioning to vocals. She also has a surprising background in cellular and molecular biology and once worked as an EMT and firefighter. Webster’s music is deeply personal and inspired by her belief that “everything is energy\,” a philosophy that guides her to focus on her spirit and create music that is honest and authentic.\n\nIn 2016\, Webster made history with her original song “Fool Me Once\,” becoming the first vocalist to hit #1 on the Billboard Contemporary Jazz charts since Sade in 2010. She held the top spot for four weeks\, beating Sade’s three-week run. The winning combination of Webster and her long-time musical partner and former husband\, pianist Keith Slattery\, has resulted in two Billboard #1s and eight Top 10s on the Billboard charts. \nCrosstown Theater \nSunday\, September 28\, 6PM \nGet Tickets Now
