GET JAZZED! 

Festival boasts a stellar lineup 

Event expands 

throughout region 

By Nick Roth 

nick@capegazette.com 

The Rehoboth Beach Jazz Festival 

opens next month with a 

lineup of events that will 

light up venues from Rehoboth 

Beach to Lewes. 

The festival, now in its 23rd year, is 

offering a growing list of events along 

the Route 1 corridor and into Lewes as 

organizers work to provide the best experience 

possible to its legion of fans. 

Several shows during this year’s festivities, 

Oct. 11-14, will take place in 

Cape Henlopen High School’s state-of- 

the-art 865-seat theater, with others 

slated for Timothy’s Tap House and 

Old Bay Steakhouse on Route 1. 

“It would be a shame not to use the 

theater,” said festival President Denny 

Santangini. “We are so happy to have 

the opportunity to see how wonderful 

the theater really is.” 

This year’s event will kick off with 

three-time Grammy Award nominee 

Boney James at the Cape Henlopen 

Theatre Thursday, Oct. 11. Tickets are 

$62 and $65. The saxophonist has 

toured with The Isley Brothers, Morris 

Day, Randy Crawford and Teena Marie, 

and has also embarked on a solo tour. 

The theater is perfectly equipped for 

this type of event,” Santangini said. It 

features a large stage, high-quality 

acoustics, lighting and sound and comfortable 

seating. 

Also featured on the Cape stage will 

be two mashup shows - Rehoboth 

Beach All-Stars on Saturday, Oct. 13 and 

the Final Grand Jam on Sunday, Oct. 14. 

Each show features many musicians in 

town for the weekend jamming together 

and having some fun. 

Santangini said he’s particularly excited 

to see Brian Culbertson play Oct. 

12 at Cape High. Culbertson is a contemporary 

jazz instrumentalist who 

plays keyboard and trombone. He is also 

a composer and arranger and is 

heavily influenced by funk. 

“He’s an upcoming star,” said Santangini. 

“He’s very talented and getting 

better by the day.” Culbertson will play 

with Eric Darius with special guests 

Matt Marshak and Marcus Anderson. 

Tickets are nearly sold out.

Swing, Blues, N‘awlins and more. 

Led by award winning saxman, singer 

and songwriter Scott Ramminger, 

he will be joined by top players from 

the DC area. Andy Poxon (guitar and 

vocals) is working on a new CD with 

guitar legend, Duke Robillard. 

Big Joe Maher (drums and vocals), based in Maryland, has 

performed with a host of greats from around the world. Bill 

Heid (keyboards and vocals) is one of the top players on the 

East Coast. Trumpeter Vince McCool plays with the best in the 

Mid-Atlantic and Russ Wasson originally hails from Louisiana 

and holds down the bass chair. This performance will be 

rocking, bouncing and second lining!

Joe consistently reaches his listeners with the 

distinctiveness of his musical voice as both a 

truly creative virtuoso on vibraphone and an 

increasingly compelling composer. He is one 

of the most exciting young jazz musicians in 

the world. -Todd Barkan, Record Producer, 

Artistic Manager, Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola

Washington DC based 

guitarist and vocalist Tom 

Principato has a forty year 

career and jam-packed 

resume to his credit. He 

surrounds himself with 

musical royalty to present 

inventive grooves and dazzling 

fretwork. Some say 

that if Eric Clapton packed it in and turned over the pick to 

a successor, that could easily be the electric bliss of Tom 

Principato. His latest CD, A Part of Me, brings great sounds 

from all over the musical map including flowing jazz licks 

and fiery, blues solos .

improvisation in an eclectic performance ranging 

from Dixieland and Swing to Bebop and Beyond.

and has worked and toured with Rod 

Stewart and Billy Squier. 

“The expansion out to the Lewes

because we have more venues to

we’re bringing in more revenue for the 

area.” For more information about the

BONEY JAMES • Thursday, Oct. 11, 8 p.m., Cape Henlopen High School, Lewes 

Boney James 

makes ‘Contact’ 

Boney James fans have scooped 

up more three million copies 

of his 12 albums, and eight of 

the albums went to No. 1 on 

the Billboard Contemporary Jazz 

Chart. He is considered one of the 

most influential jazz artists of his generation. 

In 2010, Billboard Magazine 

named him “The No. 3 Top Contemporary 

Jazz Artist of the Decade.” 

With four gold albums, three Grammy 

nominations, a Soul Train Award 

and an NAACP Award nomination to 

his credit, James said: “I am just a saxophone 

player whose music has several 

different influences. Jazz is only one of 

them.” 

His latest CD, “Contact,” is driven by 

the signature soulful grooves the world 

has come to expect from him, but with 

an added intensity. 

“Contact” boasts high-profile vocal 

guest appearances from Grammy and 

Tony Award winner Heather Headley; 

platinum-selling singer and former 

member of Destiny’s Child, LeToya 

Luckett; and R&B superstars Mario 

and Donnell Jones. 

“The title, ‘Contact’, initially reminded 

me of an electrical contact,” says 

James. “But once I started getting deeper 

into the record and writing the lyrics 

for the vocal songs, it seemed to me to 

also be about love, the connection between 

people and the frequent regret 

people experience as a result of missed 

opportunities. ‘Why did I not do this or 

that?’ People ask themselves that all the 

time. The word has so many layers.” 

“Contact” also speaks to his personal 

life. Last spring, while in traffic on a 

Los Angeles highway, Boney’s car was 

totaled when he was rear-ended by a 

drunk driver. “One moment, I was on 

my way home thinking about what I 

was going to have for dinner and the 

next moment I was in an ambulance 

with a fractured jaw and two missing 

front teeth, thinking I may never play 

my sax again. Looking at the car, I 

knew I could have been killed. Months 

later, after healing, I was so grateful to 

be back on stage and back to work on

the CD. The experience has actually had a positive effect on 

my shows and it was a great influence on the new CD.” 

Born in Lowell, Mass., James took up the clarinet at age 8 

and switched to saxophone when he was 10. Raised in New 

Rochelle, New York, he was influenced by Stevie Wonder,

Welcome to this 

year’s jazz fest! 

The Greatest Jazz Fesival in the 

World is a trademark the Rehoboth 

Jazz Festival’s organizers 

do not take lightly. The 

festival lives up to the name by offering 

a stellar lineup of shows in downtown 

Rehoboth and is now expanding to 

venues along the Route 1 corridor and 

into Lewes. 

The new theater on the campus of 

the Cape Henlopen High School was 

built to Broadway standards and is considered 

to be the second best theater in 

the state. Its integrated sound system 

and lights are state of the art. In addition 

to this new technology, the theater 

was built to provide the greatest seating 

and sightline comfort for the attendees,

The natural expansion to Cape Theater

growth includes the various Route One

For the first time, this expansion has 

given the festival the freedom and comfort

Because of last year’s initial success, 

Epworth United Methodist Church will 

have three ticketed events. Not to be 

outdone, Timothy’s came to the festival 

with the aggressive desire to have five 

ticketed events at their location. The 

overwhelming response to the festival 

growth by the “Route One/Lewes Corridor” 

has put plans into motion to 

make the 2013 festival even bigger and 

better. 

The festival invites the entire beach 

area business community to help with 

ideas to make the 2013 festival expansion 

even better. 

The Rehoboth Jazz Festival is excited 

to have The Rehoboth Beach Convention 

Center and the Rehoboth restaurant 

music venues, plus the newly expanded 

Route One/Lewes Corridor as 

part of The Greatest Jazz Festival in

PRODUCER OF THE YEAR 

Michael Lazaroff 

helps bring jazz ashore 

By Melissa Steele 

melissasteele@capegazette.com 

On land or at sea, Michael Lazaroff is 

no stranger to jazz. 

As executive director of Jazz Cruises 

LLC, Lazaroff has sponsored the Rehoboth 

Beach Jazz Festival for the past 

two years. 

This year he’s been named producer 

of the year for the 23rd annual Rehoboth 

Beach event. 

“Michael Lazaroff is one of the few 

leading promoters of live music events 

in the United States that reaches all demographic 

groups. He brings to audiences 

the leading music performers, 

and at the same time provides them 

with great enjoyment because of his 

‘greatest party at sea,’” said Dennis Santangini, 

president of the festival. “We 

are one of the very few jazz festivals 

that had been honored by his association, 

and it’s our pleasure to honor him 

as our Producer of the Year 2012.” 

A St. Louis native, Lazaroff was an attorney 

until his mother Anita E. Berry – 

who had booked jazz cruises for years – 

decided in 2001 that they should charter 

a ship to organize their own jazz 

cruise, according to Splash Magazine 

online. 

The cruises feature top jazz musicians, 

and ships stop in popular island 

destinations such as Turks and Caicos, 

St. Barth’s and St. Maarten’s.

“Some of my closest friends I’ve met 

on the cruises I have chartered. They 

came on board as clients, but lasting 

friendships have developed. My approach 

to the industry is to invite people 

to come on one of my cruises to 

have fun, not simply as a customer,” 

Lazaroff said in a Splash Magazine interview.

Timothy’s to host five 

jazz fest concerts 

By Ryan Mavity 

ryanm@capegazette.com 

For Rehoboth Beach Jazz Festival connoisseurs, a new 

venue has stepped up to make sure the party doesn’t 

end. Timothy’s At The Beach on Route 1 outside Rehoboth 

will host five concerts as part of the festival. 

Denny Santangini, president of the festival, said, “They 

reached out to us and wanted to be a part of it.” 

He said there were not a lot of venues in Rehoboth like 

Timothy’s where acts could play. Santangini said the shows 

at Timothy’s, which come with a lower price tag, would provide 

more people with opportunities to see the jazz festival. 

Timothy’s owner Kirk Steele said the jazz fest was a good 

opportunity for the restaurant to get involved with the community. 

The festival is something Rehoboth should embrace 

as a way to bring in business in the offseason, he said. Timothy’s 

is nearing its third year in business and hosts acoustic 

performers and bands every Tuesday and Saturday. 

“It’s an exciting thing,” Steele said. 

On Friday, Oct. 12, Timothy’s will host two shows: a 5:30 

PHOTO COURTESY OF THE REHOBOTH FOODIE 

p.m. happy hour concert by Zoe and an after show at 11:30 

p.m. with Brian Simpson and Marc Antoine. Tickets for the 

happy hour show are $15, while the after-hours show is $28 

for the main stage room and $22 for the simulcast room. 

Steele said in total, the venue can hold 200 people. 

The following night, Saturday, Oct. 13, the restaurant will 

host two more shows at the same times; the happy hour 

show is by Urban Jazz Coalition and the after-party show is 

by Jeff Golub and Steve Cole. Tickets for the happy hour 

show are $15, while the after-hours show is $25 for the main 

stage room and $22 for the simulcast room. 

Timothy’s will host the jazz fest’s closing party, 6:30 p.m., 

Sunday, Oct. 14, with a performance by Urban Jazz Coalition 

with guests Matt Marshak, Marcus Anderson, Jeff Kashiwa 

and others to be announced. Tickets are $20.

BRIAN CULBERTSON • Friday, Oct. 12, 7:30 p.m., Cape Henlopen High School, Lewes 

Culbertson & Co. 

return to Rehoboth 

Concert to feature Darius, Marshak, Anderson 

Brian Culbertson began his 

quest in music on piano at the 

age of 8, adding drums at 9, 

trombone at 10 then bass at 12. 

He grew up in Decatur, IL, loving 

genre-crossing jazz-pop artists such as 

Chicago, Blood Sweat & Tears, Tower 

of Power, the Brecker Brothers, David 

Sanborn, Yellowjackets and Maynard 

Ferguson. So naturally gifted was Brian, 

his 7th grade piano recital consisted of 

all original tunes. 

In 1994, at age 20, Brian self-pro- 

duced his debut, Long Night Out, followed 

in short order by Modern Life 

and After Hours (1996). With 1997’s Secrets, 

the hits kept comin’ with “So 

Good” and “On My Mind.” His 1999 

follow-up, Somethin’ Bout Love, also 

sat high among the Contemparary Jazz 

Top 20 for nearly a year with the two 

No. 1 singles, “Back In The Day” and 

“Do You Really Love Me?” In 2001, Brian 

released Nice & Slow (featuring 

special guest trumpeter Herb Alpert 

and singer/songwriter Kenny Latti- 

more), which spent six weeks at No. 1 

on Billboard’s Contemporary Jazz 

Chart thanks to the No. 1 singles “Get It 

On” and “All About You.” Then came 

Come On Up (2003), highlighted by a 

blazing cover of Earth Wind & Fire’s 

“Serpentine Fire” and the beautiful 

“Our Love.” 2005’s It’s On Tonight 

found him making the switch from 

Warner Bros. to GRP/Verve for a sensual-leaning 

project featuring the leadoff 

single “Hooking Up” plus “Let’s Get 

Started,” as well as special guests Patti 

Austin, Will Downing, Chris Botti, Kirk 

Whalum, Ledisi and Boney James. A 

Soulful Christmas, the 2006 holiday album, 

swiftly followed. 2008 found him 

blasting back with the all-star blowout 

Bringing Back the Funk, a salute to ‘70s 

soul music that he co-produced with 

the legendary Maurice White. In total, 

Brian has produced or performed on 

over 25 No. 1 records. In 2010, he released 

his eleventh studio album XII. 



ARTIST OF THE YEAR JEFF GOLUB • Friday, Oct. 12, 10 p.m., Epworth United Methodist Church, Rehoboth 

Jeff Golub 

gets the blues 

Former Rod Stewart guitarist to be joined 

on local stage by blues great Henry Butler 

By Kara Nuzback 

knuzback@capegazette.com 

Jazz guitarist Jeff Golub is a regular 

at the Rehoboth Beach Jazz Festival, 

and major personal setbacks will not 

stop him from appearing at this year’s 

event. 

Golub, 57, started his career in music 

as a guitarist for Billy Squier, but he is 

best known as a guitarist for Rod Stewart, 

whom he played with for seven 

years. He has also released a dozen 

solo albums since 1988, including his 

most recent album in 2011, The Three 

Kings. While recording his lates album. 

Golub suffered from a collapse of the 

optic nerves in both eyes. “I’ve lost 

my sight,” he said in a phone interview, 

Sept. 20. 

The loss has taken some getting used 

to. On Sept. 5, Golub fell onto the 

tracks of a New York City subway. “I 

thought I was stepping into a car,” he 

said. 

While trying to climb back onto the 

platform, Golub was grazed by a train 

car and briefly dragged. 

“I pulled myself off the tracks, and 

good samaritans helped to stop the 

train,” Golub said. He was then treated 

at a nearby hospital. 

The guitarist said he was surprised 

to have suffered only bruises and cuts 

from the accident. “It’s surprising,” he 

said. “I’m in pretty good shape.” 

Golub said an emergency medical 

technician told him he must have some 

unfinished business to tend to. 

Since losing his vision, Golub has un- 



Culbertson & Co. 


Eric Darius: ‘Music can make a difference’ 

“I want my music to be a vehicle for 

change and to transcend boundaries 

from age to race. 

“I believe my music can make a difference 

in the world,” says Eric Darius, 

the commanding 20-something musician, 

composer, and performer, known 

for his dynamic and exhilarating live 

shows. 

Darius’ explosive arrival on the contemporary 

jazz scene at age 17 caused a 

frenzy. The ambitious saxophonist who 

has shared the stage with everyone 

from Prince, Carlos Santana, Wynton 

Marsalis, Wyclef Jean, George Benson, 

and Brian McKnight, had just released 

an auspicious recording debut and had 

already made an appearance at the 

famed Montreux Jazz Festival in 

Switzerland. 

Darius released his latest album and 

Shanachie Entertainment debut, On A 

Mission, in the summer of 2010. 

Matt Marshak taps into diversity 

Contemporary jazz guitarist Matt 

Marshak taps into the wonderful diversity 

of music in Colors of Me (Nuance 

Music Group), shading his classic and 

fluid style with jazz, blues, rock, pop 

and even down-home boogie. Marshak’s 

seventh major release follows 

2011’s highly received Urban Folktales, 

which captured a sophisticated latenight 

vibe and boasted a No. 1 song on 

the indie jazz chart, “Silent Knowing.” 

Marcus Anderson brings energy 

After his breakthrough in contemporary 

jazz circles as the 2009 winner of 

the Capital Jazz Fest Challenge, Marcus 

Anderson is embracing every opportunity 

to perform and inspire fans. The 

talented composer, saxophonist and 

flutist’s original working title was Transition, 

a nod to the development of his 

career and his move toward the top of 

contemporary jazz. With the release of 

his third solo CD, Anderson’s goal is to 

capture the energy from his shows and 

make this collection of music his most 

dynamic, joyful and creative recordings 

yet.

EXCELLENT CARE.


Golub, Butler 


dergone testing with eye specialists in 

hopes of bringing his sight back. “I’m 

hoping to find some cure,” he said. 

An account has been set up so fans 

can help with Golub’s medical expenses. 

“The doctors I want to see aren’t 

included in my insurance,” he said. 

Golub said the loss of his sight has 

not had a negative effect on his guitar 

playing, but it has made traveling more 

difficult. “Any contributions help me 

keep playing for a living,” he said. 

Fans can donate to Golub’s cause 

through his website at jeffgolub.com. 

Golub said he is excited to visit Rehoboth 

Beach again and he looks forward 

to visiting the beach and downtown 

bars and restaurants. “I’ve heard 

some great music during my stays 

there,” he said. 

One of the artists he is most anticipating 

is Steve Cole, with whom he is 

scheduled to play at 11:30 p.m., Satur-

“He’s an old friend,” Golub said. 

Golub is also scheduled to perform 

with pianist Henry Butler, who is also 

legally blind, at 10 p.m., Friday, Oct. 12, 

at Epworth United Methodist Church 

on Route 1. “He said he could hear the 

difference when I lost my sight,” Golub 

said. “Hopefully, it has improved.” 

Golub will also play at the Final 

Grand Jam at 3 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 14, at 

Rehoboth Beach Convention Center. 

Cole, Butler and 11 other artists are also 

scheduled to appear. 

Butler: Piano in New Orleans tradition 

Once you’ve heard what bluesman 

Henry Butler’s hands can create on the 

ivories, there’s no going back. Throw in 

a classically trained voice aching us 

through the blues, and you’re someplace 

you have never been before. 

The premier exponent of the great 

New Orleans jazz and blues piano tradition, 

Butler is a ten-time Pinetop 

Perkins (formerly W. C. Handy) Best 

Blues Instrumentalist Award nominee. 

A rich amalgam of jazz, Caribbean,

on vocals 

classical, pop, blues, and R&B, his music 

is as excitingly eclectic as that of his 

New Orleans birthplace. 

Blinded by glaucoma at birth, Butler 

has been playing the piano since he 

was 6, and arranging, composing, and 

performing professionally since he was 

12. A New York Times review of a performance 

at New York City’s Jazz Standard 

described Butler as “percussive in 

his attack, ostentatious with his technique…the 

picture of stubborn mischief 

- and, not coincidentally, of New Orleans 

pianism. He obliged the spirit of 

the occasion with his own stylistic consommé: 

billowing whole-tone glissandi; 

furrowed, Monkish hiccups; boppish 

two-handed octaves; flare-ups of funk 

and Chopin.” To date, Butler has played 

almost every major club and festival in 

the United States, as well as venues in 

Brazil, France, Norway, Italy, Japan, 

Australia, and more. For over 40 years, 

he has conducted workshops, clinics, 

and master classes throughout the 

country; he also developed a camp for 

blind and visually impaired teen musicians, 

the subject of a documentary, 

The Music’s Gonna Get You Through.

BRIAN SIMPSON & MARC ANTOINE • Friday, Oct. 12, 11:30 p.m., Timothy’s Restaurant, Route 1 

Simpson, Antoine 

get set to inspire 

Celebrated keyboardist, composer 

and studio musician, 

Brian Simpson has been the 

go-to man for everyone from 

Janet Jackson and Teena Marie to 

George Duke, Stanley Clarke and Dave 

Koz, for whom he has had the distinction 

of being musical director for the 

past 15 years. The chart-topping musical 

chameleon who wrote the No. 1 

R&B hit “The First Time” for Surface 

in the 1990s confesses, “Ultimately, my 

listeners inspire me to make my music.” 

Known for his ability to sculpt time- 

less love songs, soulful party anthems 

and melodies that stay on your mind, 

Brian Simpson is a master at his craft. 

South Beach, his inaugural album for 

Shanachie Entertainment, delivers on 

every front. The album’s title track, 

with a jubilant vibe reminiscent of the 

Ramsey Lewis smash hit “The In 

Crowd,” is already top 20 on multiple 

jazz charts, two months prior to album 

release. 

“I’m very happy we chose South 

Beach as the first single,” confides 

Simpson, “because it’s probably the 

song that’s most indicative of my style. 

My travels take me to some pretty nice 

places, but my favorites are always the 

ones with beaches. In the last year I’ve 

been to Hawaii, Bali, Indonesia, and 

several beaches in Florida. The wind, 

sea, and sand really inspired the 

melodies you’ll hear.” Now he’s coming 

to Rehoboth Beach. 

Hailing from Gurnee, Illinois, Brian 

always knew music would play center 

stage in his life. “Our house was filled 

with music. My older brother and sister 

both played instruments, and my 

brother’s rock band rehearsed in our 

living room every weekend. I never really 

considered any other lifestyle,” said 

the keyboardist. 

After graduating from Northern Illinois 

University, Simpson relocated to 

Los Angeles where he quickly immersed 

himself in the local jazz scene. 

Late-night jazz sessions found him 

playing alongside everyone from saxophonists 

Everette Harp and Boney 



Simpson, Antoine 


James to guitarist Norman Brown. 

Placing his success in pop aside, Brian 

Simpson has always been a working 

jazz musician. He has toured with 

some of the greats of recent jazz history, 

including George Duke, Stanley 

Clarke, Larry Carlton, Kirk Whalum 

and Jonathan Butler. 

Marc Antoine gets jazzy 

Guitarist, composer and producer 

Marc Antoine was born in Paris 

(France) in 1963. His parents bought 

him his first guitar when he was 11 

years old which quickly became his 

third arm. Marc has had a guitar in his 

hands ever since. 

At age 13, his father saw such rapid 

progress that he sent him to the conservatory 

where he would study classical 

music. By then his mentors were 

Andres Segovia and John Williams. 

At 17 he’d already won many prizes 

and started showing an interest in a va- 

riety of music genres including jazz, 

rock, world , pop and more. At the 

same time he was playing in local 

bands in Britany. 

Tragedy struck in the summer of 1981 

when his debut career got cut short by 

a devastating injury to his left hand. 

The surgeon told him that his chances 

of playing again were very small. However, 

through the adversity, his love and 

passion for music helped him overcome 

this tragedy and in 1984 he was 

back on the scene in Paris, performing 

in clubs and recording for artists like 

Charlelie Couture, France Gall, Jill Kaplan, 

Ray Lema and more. 

Marc’s career boasts many No. 1 hits 

on the R&R contemporary jazz charts, 

as well as topping the Billboard charts. 

In 1995, R&R elected him best new 

artist of the year, which was followed 

by his Gavin Award in 1998, a Latin 

Grammy for best instrumental song in 

2005 and the International Artist of the 

Year at the Chicago Jazz Awards in 

2010. He has also received numerous 

nominations for jazz awards in the U.S. 

and Canada.

FRALINGER STRING BAND • SATURDAY, Oct. 13, noon, The Villages of Five Points, Lewes 

Free concert brings 

Mummery to fest 

By Henry J. Evans Jr. 

hevans@capegazette.com 

This year’s Rehoboth Beach 

Jazz Festival will feature a 

band whose sound is a big 

departure from music commonly 

called jazz. 

The Fralinger String Band is bringing 

its Mummers musical styles spanning 

sing-along favorites, Dixieland, jazz, big 

band, swing, patriotic, contemporary 

and Latin to The Village Green at the 

Villages of Five Points. The show starts 

at noon, Saturday, Oct. 14. 

“They’re headlining the free, family 

concert,” said Denny Santangini, Rehoboth 

Beach Jazz Festival president. 

Philadelphia Mummers are costumed 

entertainers who welcome in 

the New Year by festively parading 

down center city streets. 

Mummery dates back to early Egypt 

when they led the burial procession of 

pharaohs, dressed in extravagant costumes, 

playing finger cymbals, tambourines 

and other rhythm instruments. 

The Fralinger band is called the ultimate 

in Mummers’ entertainment. 

They won first, second or third prize in 

20 of the last 25 New Years’ Day parades 

in which they have performed. 

Dr. John J. Fralinger, a Philadelphia 

physician and pharmacist, organized 

the group in 1914.

performance of Dixieland 

jazz and big band music, and recipient 

of Philadelphia Mayor’s Achievement 

Award. 

The band performed at this year’s

Year Parade in 2007, and appeared in 

the 1981 movie ‘Blow Out,’ written and 

directed by Brian De Palma.

By 2005 The Larks had reached the

with Delmarva Nightlife naming The 

Larks one of their “Top Bands of 2006.” 

That same year WBOC-TV took note 

that “The Larks are a welcome bright

combines with technical 

prowess to let rhythms and melodies 

flourish and keeps them a few steps

JONATHAN BUTLER • Saturday, Oct. 13, 1 p.m., Cape Henlopen High School, Lewes 

Jonathan Butler’s 

Soul of Summer 

Smooth jazz artist to be 

joined by Hill, Maysa 

Alife well lived is often the 

best foundation for compelling 

art, and there’s no 

denying Jonathan Butler has 

been blessed with a fascinating life. A 

South African native whose expansive 

musical gift has earned accolades in 

the R&B, contemporary jazz and 

gospel fields, Butler’s new release 

Grace and Mercy is filled with the 

soulful sounds and insightful lyrics fans 

have come to expect from the veteran 

performer. 

On Grace and Mercy, Butler delivers 

a collection of songs that serve as a 

soothing musical balm in today’s troubled 

times. “This album really speaks 

about optimism, faith, belief and hope, 

especially in light of what everybody 

has been experiencing in the last two 

or three years,” he says. “There’s been a 

lot of people losing their homes, their 

jobs; enduring the challenges that life 

brings. I’m hoping this album will bring 

hope to people. Songs like ‘Give it Up 

To God,’ ‘I Stand On Your Word,’ and 

‘Who is Like the Lord’ were written 

from experiences that I’ve had to go 

through myself.” 

Born in Cape Town, Butler was the 

youngest of 12 children. He discovered 

a gift for music early in life and began 

singing and playing guitar at age seven. 

As a child, he traveled all over South 

Africa performing with a troupe of 100 

children, getting a first-hand look at the 

country’s disturbing dichotomy: Devastating 

poverty and extreme affluence 

that existed under apartheid. 

Butler signed his first record deal as 

a teen and became the first black artist 

playing on white South African stations. 

“That was 1974 and it was a song 

titled ‘Please Stay,’” Butler recalls of the 

historic tune, which won a Sarie 

Award, the South African equivalent of 

a Grammy. 

Butler has toured the world with 

such acclaimed artists as Kirk Whalum, 

Dave Koz and Ruby Turner. He’s 



ART SHERROD JR. • Saturday, Oct. 13, 2:30 p.m., Epworth United Methodist Church, Rehoboth Beach 

Sherrod: When jazz 

meets Motown 

Smooth and urban jazz saxophonist 

Art Sherrod Jr. grew up 

in Palestine, Texas surrounded 

by parents who made music a 

main part of the Sherrod household. At 

the age of five he was singing in the 

choir and at the age of thirteen Art 

joined the high school band and had to 

make a big decision, what instrument 

should he play? Art finally settled on 

the instrument that he thought might 

get the most attention from the girls 

and chose the saxophone. 

Aside from being in the Drum and 

Bugle Corps in the Naval Academy, 

Art’s later musical schooling came 

from real-life experiences on the bandstand 

and picking up ideas from his favorite 

artistic influences like Cannonball 

Adderley, Charlie Parker, Gerald 

Albright (bass), Kirk Whalum, Kim 

Waters, David Sanborn and others. 

Art’s profound experiences as a child, 

listening to his mother play organ and 

sing in a joyous manner, convinced him 

at an early age that music had the power 

to lift your spirits. 

He released a live CD and DVD project 

titled Art Sherrod Jr. Live in 2004 

that was quickly followed by his debut 

CD All 4 Love in 2005. All 4 Love put 

Sherrod in the spotlight, receiving posi- 

tive attention and receiving comments 

like, “after one listen you will instantly 

become an Art lover.” Laced with Urban 

Jazz, R&B, and the traditional 

Smooth Jazz sounds, “Seasons,” manages 

to bring together a “who’s who” 

list of great musicians Sherrod has performed 

with during the years including 

(his mentor), Gerald Albright, Will 

Downing, Tracy Hamlin and Marcus 

Johnson. 

Sherrod demonstrates in his new release 

that he really knows how to shape 

a myriad of moods, from his sultry 

“Thinking Of You,” to the funky 

“Smooth Grove” and covering a silky 

rendition of Earth, Wind and Fire’s, 

“That’s the Way of the World.” Each 

track is an expression of Art’s heartfelt 

voice on soprano, alto and tenor saxophones 

as he creates rambunctious 

riffs, soulful sounds, and gorgeous 

grooves. 

Besides alto, tenor and soprano saxophone, 

Art plays electronic wind controller 

(EWI).


SAX PACK • Saturday, Oct. 13, 4 p.m., Rehoboth Beach Convention Center 

Tap into raw energy 

of The Sax Pack 

Sax Pack trio brings an energized 

new version of jazz to the 

stage. The idea of The Sax Pack 

originated in 2004 with saxophonist 

Jeff Kashiwa after he saw a 

movie about the Rat Pack, a group of 

legendary entertainers led by Frank 

Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy 

Davis, Jr. 

Inspired by their showmanship and 

camaraderie, Kashiwa came up with 

the name The Sax Pack and called on 

some of his saxophone peers and start- 

ed a new group that would feature the 

instrument, as well as their collective 

musical passion for jazz, funk and R&B. 

The Sax Pack has released two CDs, 

The Sax Pack (2008) and The Pack is 

Back (2009) on Shanachie Records. 

In 2012, The Sax Pack features Jeff 

Kashiwa, Steve Cole and Marcus Anderson. 

Along with being musically cohesive, 

the trio share a unique and comical camaraderie 

on stage. 

Backed by a tight rhythm section, the 

talented trio combine their life-long 

love of music and their passion for performance 

to make an impact on audiences 

that love music as much as they 

do. 

Committed to sharing the excitement, 

spontaneity and creative energy 

that flows between them on stage, The 

Sax Pack inspires an audience far beyond 

the duration of a show. 

The well-known saxophonists are 

excited to create a show that combines 

their individual styles and diverse 

backgrounds for a fresh approach to 

the music that inspired them all to become 

musicians: Jazz. 

Highlights of the tour will feature 

original music written specifically for 

The Sax Pack, as well as each sax player’s 

signature hits and the classic funk, 

R&B and jazz tunes that will get fans 

out of their seats.


OH BOY! A TRIBUTE TO BUDDY HOLLY • Saturday, Oct. 13, 8 p.m., Epworth U.M. Church, Rehoboth 

Show is a tribute to 

legend Buddy Holly 

Buddy Holly’s life story will 

come alive in Jazz Festival 

performance OH BOY! A 

Tribute to Buddy Holly. The 

show is at 8:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 13, 

at Epworth United Methodist Church, 

19285 Holland Glade Road in Rehoboth 

Beach. 

The band is the creation of Rehoboth 

Elementary School music 

teacher and OH BOY! frontman Walt 

Hetfield. The group also features Barry 

Eli on bass and keyboards, Mike 

Long on rhythm guitar and bass, and 

Ken Schleifer on drums. OH BOY! 

plays note-for-note versions of the 

songs of Buddy Holly and The Crickets. 

Hetfield performs in character as 

Buddy Holly and narrates the beloved 

performer’s amazing life story. 

Included in the show will be songs 

that are part of the Buddy Holly story. 

In addition to The Crickets’ music, 

OH BOY! reprises the music of Carl 

Perkins, Johnny Cash, Richie Valens 

and the Big Bopper. 

“We don’t just do the greatest hits,” 

said Hetfield, “we also cover the 

Rockabilly era of his early career. Being 

a fan of Holly myself, it has always 

been my intention to do a show that 

will satisfy the hard-core fans. We 

even do some post-Holly Crickets 

numbers.” 

The show, which debuted last April 

2009 at the Rehoboth Theatre, has 

been successful beyond Hetfield’s initial 

expectations. 

“The original idea was to play a 

one-time tribute show in a night club,” 

he said “I wanted to commemorate 

the 50th anniversary of Buddy’s untimely 

demise. Then, a funny thing 

happened. The demand for tickets 

was so great that we had to move the 

show to a theater. 

“Since then, we have played to 

packed houses for three years in 

Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania 

and New Jersey. We are looking forward 

to appearing at this year’s Rehoboth 

Jazz Festival.”

show, go to rehobothjazz.com.


WILL DOWNING & GERALD ALBRIGHT • Saturday, Oct. 13, 10:30 p.m., Rehoboth Convention Center 

Downing, Albright 

share rich talent 

In his two decade recording career, 

Brooklyn native and vocalist 

Will Downing has carved for 

himself a solid career as one of 

the leading purveyors of unapologetic, 

unabashed romantic music. And while 

this has not translated to crossover 

success – or even to broad urban radio 

success – it has gained for Downing a 

solid musical legacy and a rabidly loyal 

following among women. 

Downing had his first national expo- 

LOOKING BACK OVER THE LAST TWO DECADES, WILL DOWNING HAS 

ESTABLISHED HIMSELF AS ONE OF THE MOST CONSISTENT, SOULFUL 

SINGERS OF HIS ERA AND ARGUABLY, WITH THE UNFORTUNATE DEATH OF 

LUTHER VANDROSS, AS TODAY’S LEADING PROVIDER OF ROMANTIC, 

SOULFUL MUSIC. 

sure as a popular backing vocalist in 

the ‘80s before signing with Island 

Records. He recorded two modestly 

successful albums and had a minor hit 

with a cover of “A Love Supreme” before 

releasing his breakout 1991 album 

A Dream Fulfilled. It was a marvelous 

disc that showed Downing not only 

possessed a fine baritone voice but that 

he was also an excellent song stylist, 

deftly handling such diverse pieces as 

War’s “The World Is A Ghetto” and 

Paul Davis’ “I Go Crazy” and providing 

a stunning, definitive version of Angela 

Bofill’s “I Try.” Both the “I Try” single 

and the album hit the Urban top 25, to 

great critical acclaim. 

Downing found his musical identity 

with A Dream Fulfilled, the first of a 

string of successful albums that focused 

on smooth, romantic music, 

mostly ballads. Sometimes unfairly 



Van Williamson Trio 

continues to keep the beat 

The Van Williamson Trio returns 

to the 23rd Annual Rehoboth 

Beach Jazz Festival 

this year with a couple of 

new locations, some new tunes, and 

the same old joie de vivre that makes 

them a popular attraction at local watering 

holes. As usual, the trio will feature 

Van on guitar, the redoubtable 

Tom Anthony on upright and electric 

bass, and the multi-faceted Felix Contreras 

on drums and percussion. 

The trio, or members thereof, has 

been appearing at the festival since the 

event’s second year, which means 

they’re all starting to get a little long in 

the tooth. 

The oldest member is closing in on 

30, so do the math: They started playing 

the festival when they were 5- to 10years 

old. 

“We only knew children’s songs, because 

we were children. We had a 

snappy polyrhythmic version of Three 

Blind Mice, which was weird, because 

we didn’t know what ‘snappy’ or 

‘polyrhythmic’ meant, although we 

were hip to mice. Worked out ok, although 

it was difficult to go back to elementary 

school after all the excitement 

of the weekend,” according to 

Williamson. 

“So we just kept coming down to the 

best party around. Eventually we were 

old enough to drink, and that’s when 

things really got interesting. As usual, 

we thank the organizers for celebrating 

America’s music, and providing at outlet 

for the many underworked and underpaid 

musicians in the Delmarva region 

and beyond. You gotta love it.” 

Van, Tom and Felix hope music 

lovers will stop by and enjoy some classic 

American jazz and pop tunes and 

make sure they’re still vertical after all 

these years. (The boys, not the tunes.) 

CHERYL NEMAZIE PHOTO 

Van Williamson 

The guitarist and leader of the group, 

Van graduated with a music degree 

from San Francisco State University 

and spent many years playing in the 

just-short-of-obscurity bluegrass group 

Roy and the Adults. Since then, in addition 

to his radio career, he has played 

as a solo guitarist, and in groups ranging 

from folk to classical, both on the 

West Coast and in the Delmarva region. 

For 20 years, he was the producer 

of Radio from Downtown, a live music/variety 

radio broadcast at the Avalon 

Theatre in Easton, MD. The show 

is currently on hiatus. 

Van just retired from a long stint as 

Director of NPR’s Morning Edition, 

where he also produced numerous music 

pieces over the years, featuring, 

among others, Rosanne Cash, Steely 

Dan, Diana Krall, Alison Krauss and 

many others. He was at the show for 

the changing of the guard, directing the 

last show of Bob Edwards and the first 

show of Steve Inskeep and Renee Montagne. 

He’s now devoting full time to 

his other pursuits, music the foremost. 

This will be his 22nd year at the fest. 



Butler 


earned Grammy nominations and rave 

reviews in the jazz and R&B fields, but 

his gospel albums hold a special place 

in his heart. Music, ministry, faith and 

family are all woven joyfully together 

for Jonathan Butler. 

Warren Hill on a musical journey 

Born and raised in Toronto, Canada, 

Warren Hill began his musical journey 

on the guitar and vocals at the age of 7. 

In his first lesson, his guitar teacher 

simply asked him “tell me your favorite 

songs and I’ll teach you how to play 

them.” It was this simple question that 

set the stage for Warren’s entire musical 

future: Playing the music that he 

loved. 

Since 1991, Warren has released 11 solo 

CDs that have reached combined 

worldwide sales of over 1 million 

copies. 

Currently Warren is touring with the 

Soul of Summer, a package tour featur-

ing Jonathan Butler and Maysa. He is 

working on several projects, including 

a new CD; his daughter’s CD and next 

film; his online Sax Club - with student 

members around the globe; concert 

promotion; and an innovative new internet 

music series. 

Maysa returns 

While Maysa is no newcomer to the 

music scene, her ninth solo CD, Motions 

of Love (Shanachie Entertainment) 

boasts cameos by the legendary 

Stevie Wonder and neo soul crooner 

Dwele. It promises to introduce the 

veteran soul and smooth jazz vocalist 

to the widest audience of her career. 

She first gained fame as the featured 

voice on British acid jazz band Incognito’s 

defining `90s era hits such as 

“Don’t You Worry About A Thing,” 

“Still A Friend of Mine” and “Deep Waters.” 

She then launched a concurrent 

solo career with the hits “Am I Wrong 

(For Lovin’ You),” “Friendly Pressure” 

and “Hypnotic Love.” 

With a sultry alto on par with Phyllis 

Hyman and Patti Austin’s honeyed 

notes, Maysa should be one of the

biggest names in the urban mainstream, 

but instead she’s earned a loyal 

underground audience. 

It’s been a beautiful life for the Baltimore, 

Md. native. Unlike many R&B 

singers, Maysa wasn’t raised in the 

church, so her musical style wasn’t 

shaped from the choir loft. Her early 

influences were her mother’s favorite 

soul records. “My mother played so 

much music in the house,” she laughs. 

“We woke up to it. We went to sleep 

with it. We celebrated to it. We ate 

food to it. Music was everyday, all day 

long.”


Downing & 

Albright 


lumped with his friend Luther Vandross, 

Downing was actually creating 

his own brand of love music that was 

less urban and much jazzier. And 

though Downing’s songs were also 

more sensual than Vandross’, he shared 

Luther’s sensibilities, singing to women 

on a truly romantic level that clearly 

went beyond the physical. 

Looking back over the last two 

decades, Will Downing has established 

himself as one of the most consistent, 

soulful singers of his era and arguably, 

with the unfortunate death of Luther 

Vandross, as today’s leading provider of 

romantic, soulful music. 

Albright’s star continues to soar 

Gerald Albright grew up in South 

Central Los Angeles. After high school, 

he attended the University of Redlands 

where he received a B.S. in business 

management, minoring in music. 

Immediately after college, Albright 

began to master his talent by working 

extensively in the studio with such 

artists as Patrice Rushen, Anita Baker, 

Ray Parker, Jr., Lola Folana, Atlantic 

Starr, The Winans, Olivia Newton-John, 

The Temptations, and Maurice White. 

He also toured with Les McCann, Rodney 

Franklin, Jeff Lorber, Teena Marie, 

Marlene Shaw, Debra and Eloise Laws, 

Quincy Jones, Whitney Houston, Phil 

Collins, and many others. In addition to 

numerous appearances at clubs and 

jazz festivals, Albright had also been a 

part of the popular Jazz Explosion 

tours, which saw him teaming up with 

contemporary jazz stars like Downing, 

Jonathan Butler, Hugh Masekela, Chaka 

Khan, and Rachelle Ferrell. 

Albright had sold over 1 million albums 

in the U.S. His self-produced music 

features him on bass guitar, keyboards, 

flutes, drum programming, and 

background vocals. 

With 15 CDs under his belt and one 

collaboration CD, Albright has certainly 

defined his place in the music world 

as a player, songwriter and producer.


Williamson Trio 


Felix Contreras 

Felix Contreras isn’t really a jazz 

drummer. 

He is a veteran Latin jazz percussionist 

who has learned to play jazz 

drums strictly by listening to jazz practically 

his whole life. Contreras heard 

the Afro-Cuban clave beat just about 

(800) 

472-6972

302.227.8226 

the same time he came under the spell 

of swing as a teenager in Sacramento, 

California. Now his drum set includes 

cowbells (more cowbell!) as well as the 

large ride cymbal used to keep time 

and give jazz that unmistakable swing. 

He has also recorded two albums for 

the Annapolis-based Latin jazz band 

AfroBop and currently performs with 

violinist David Schulman (they have a 

CD coming out this fall). To fill time 

between gigs he works as a journalist 

for National Public Radio, where 

among other things he hosts an on line 

program about Latin alternative music, 

AltLatino (www.npr.org/altlatino). 

With bassist Tom Anthony and guitarist 

Van Williamson he has found 

like-minded musicians who seek to 

blur the boundaries between jazz and 

other forms of music. They should 

have a handle on it by now. This is the 

11th year Contreras has played the Rehoboth 

Jazz Festival with the Van 

Williamson Trio. 

Tom Anthony 

Tom Anthony started playing guitar 

and mandolin at the age of eight. By 

the time he was 12, he was playing with 

Elmer Stonesipher and the Sunvalley 

boys. He continued playing country 

music ‘til he was 18, when he switched 

to bass to play with the Summerset 

Seven, traveling to Europe on the Holland 

American Line. The band played 

onboard (“Sea Cruise” wasn’t out yet), 

and then on the continent in France, 

Germany and Holland. Tom went on 

to play the Stork Club in New York 

City with a Latin band and performed 

society music in central New Jersey. 

That led to jazz gigs in New York and 

New Jersey. 

In 1988, he moved to Chestertown, 

Maryland, where he continues to play 

at various venues around the Delmarva 

Peninsula. Tom also works with local 

symphonies and theater companies, 

and has traveled to Ireland for many 

years to play at the Clifdon Arts Festival. 

He’s part of the house band at the 

Mainstay in Rock Hall, MD, with 

Chuck and Robert Redd, Steve Abshire, 

Sue Mathews and others. He 

joined Van at the jazz festival in the 

early 90s to perform as a duo, which 

expanded into the Van Williamson 

Trio with Felix in 2001. 

The Van Williamson Trio will perform 

from 7-10 p.m. Friday, Oct. 12 at 

Dos Locos Restaurant (208 Rehoboth 

Ave.); from 2-4 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 13 at 

Rose Garden clothing store (240 Rehoboth

Oct. 13 at Iguana Grill Restaurant and 

Cantina (52 Baltimore Ave.); and from 11

Urban Jazz 

Coalition 

Ensemble to perform 

Oct. 13 at Timothy’s 

Urban Jazz Coalition is one of 

the hottest new contemporary 

jazz groups to come onto 

the scene in some time 

They have created a major buzz on the 

national festival circuit over the past 

few years. 

The group will perform a special 

happy hour show from 5:30-7 p.m. Saturday, 

Oct. 13 at Timothy’s on Route 1. 

Tickets are $15, and include a $5 purchase 

voucher for food and drink. 

UJC has electrified audiences across 

North America by performing their 

unique blend of urban jazz at many of 

the nation’s top smooth jazz festivals, 

including The Seabreeze Jazz Festival, 

The V98.7 Smooth Jazz Fest in Detroit, 

Jazz Fest West, The Las Vegas City of 

Lights Jazz and R&B Festival, The Jacksonville 

Jazz Festival, The Greater 

Hartford Festival of Jazz, WJZZ Atlanta’s 

Smooth Jazz Under The Stars 

Series. 

The UJC sound has been described 

by Jazz Times Magazine’s award winning 

smooth jazz columnist, Brian Soergel, 

as being “flush with rhythmic 

grooves, funky bass lines, and beautifully 

written melodies.” 

Michael Schivo, producer of The Las 

Vegas City of Lights Festival, was quoted 

as saying, “UJC is the best-kept secret 

in smooth jazz…they rocked our 

festival into an absolute frenzy! With 

live performance, it’s all about the music 

and the energy on stage, and these 

guys really came to play.” 

UJC has made a strong impression 

with radio as well, as their last three releases, 

“Contempo,” “Long Street” and 

“Down To Get Up” have all achieved 

Top 50 status on the national smooth 

jazz airplay charts. The band’s music 

has been featured on the NBC Daytime

Richard Walton Group: More than 

two decades and still going strong 

The Richard Walton Group is 

celebrating its 21st anniversary 

as an accomplished, 

award-winning, instrumental 

contemporary jazz group. They were 

one of the first original jazz groups to 

emerge from the Mid-Atlantic area into 

the national smooth jazz radio market 

in the mid 1990s. The group’s latest 

HDCD, Junction, is a critically acclaimed 

studio release that has blessed 

the group with new audiences, supplemented 

with an array of high profile 

performances. Their live enhanced CD 

EP Live At Blues Alley was recorded at 

a nearly sold-out performance at the 

world-famous jazz club. 

Formed in 1991, after being chosen as 

a semi-finalist in a Mid-Atlantic sponsorship, 

Richard and his group have 

gained regional and national recognition 

through airplay, songwriting contests 

and performances Following the 

releases of their other critically acclaimed 

compact discs Hear & Now, 

Where Time Stood Still and Savannah 

Of note... 

American Harvest, the Organic Spirit, is the 

official vodka of the Rehoboth Beach Jazz 


The vodka is American made and 

handcrafted in small batches from organic American wheat, 

certified organic ingredients and water from deep beneath 

the Snake River Plain, yielding a distinctly smooth and silky 

spirit with a clean, crisp taste. 

Blue, Richard and the group have a 

proven reputation as versatile composers, 

producers and performers. 

They have collectively received 36 

songwriting awards from numerous 

songwriting contests and continue to 

perform throughout the Mid-Atlantic 

area. 

See the Richard Walton Group perform 

from 6-10 p.m. Friday and Saturday, 

Oct. 12-13, at Eden Restaurant, 23 

Baltimore Ave., Rehoboth Beach.

modating me with the wonderful music from that era.” 

“We are so fortunate to have Pam and her band again this 

year” says Susan Townley, owner of The Cultured Pearl. 

“Her music epitomizes what jazz fest is about. It is quite 

challenging to accommodate the demand for shows that 

weekend”. 

In an industry where labels dominate, Pam refuses to be 

defined by any one style of music. Instead, she draws from 

many different genres to create a unique sound all her own. 

Pam sings straight from the heart, with a warmly personal 

style that draws listeners in. Not content merely to sing the 

song well, she experiments with the mood, rhythm and 

melody so that each performance is fresh and unique. Her 

stellar band consists of guitar, bass, drums, and horns and 

delivers a variety of fare, from straight jazz to cool blues and 

soulful sambas (some sung in Portuguese), and even classic 

pop with a creative jazz twist. "A lot of people have heard 

these songs over and over, but have forgotten what they 

mean. I want them to listen with a new ear.” 

“Pam Miller's interpretation of jazz standards is unique” 

says Sydney Arzt, proprietor of the former Sydney's and 

now board member of Delaware Charitable Music, Inc. "She 

has a beautiful, classically trained voice, and she does a lot of 

arrangements that are well suited to her voice."

in the 2007 hit French film “Le Verite Ou

has recently been licensed by 

Capitol/EMI Records as part of a

When asked why this group is generating 

so much excitement in smooth jazz 

circles, Carol Archer of Radio & Records 

was quoted, “A lot of artists aspire to a 

sound as tight and as funky as Urban Jazz 

Coalition, but these gentlemen can really 

pull it off…and how! 

With the success of the band’s latest 

studio project, “A New Day,” and the positive 

buzz generated by their energetic 

performances on the national smooth 

jazz festival circuit, Urban Jazz Coalition 

definitely has the momentum to hit the 

road during the summer of 2009.

alism and primitive elongation. He has 

established himself as one of the premier 

painters of African American Art. 

He has a creative approach to artistic 

images of the common man, woman 

and child. His images are inspired by 

African Americans in and out of daily 

life, popular entertainment and the 

world of sports. He has exhibited his 

works throughout the United States at 

art festivals, galleries, trade shows, convention 

centers and sports arenas 

where he has received numerous 

awards. 

His work has been exhibited at the 

African American Museum in Philadelphia, 

and also in one-man shows at 

Howard University, Widener University, 

West Chester University, University 

of Pennsylvania, Penn State and the 

Butler Institute of Fine Art in 

Youngstown, Ohio. One of his baseball 

images has been incorporated into 

the Baseball Hall of Fame Museum in 

Cooperstown, N.Y., and he has created 

a mural for Turner Stadium in Atlanta. 

Recently, he was one of 20 artists selected 

to paint a six-foot statue of the 

Phillie Phanatic. His “Music Phanatic” 

was at the Kimmel Performing Arts 

throughout the 2010 baseball season. 

Collectors of Tilghman’s artwork include 

notables such as Dave Winfield, 

Nelson Mandela, Bill Cosby, the estate 

of Ossie Davis, Nabisco Corporation, 

Prudential, MBNA and Astra-Zeneca. 

In 2004 his alma mater, Kutztown 

University, commissioned him for a 

commemorative poster for the 50th 

Anniversary of Brown versus the 

Board of Education. 

Dane’s creative philosophy is to 

bring to the audience his interpretive 

views of life on canvas. This is reflected 

in his diverse presentations as he 

shares his artistic gift with his audience. 

His unique style clearly defines 

his mastery of the craft.
