These are going to be two hot shows!
Her name is legendary.
Her music is timeless.
Her lyrics touch you at the core.
Her voice possesses rich warmth that soothes your ears and holds you close.
She is Lalah Hathaway.
Born to R&B/soul music royalty, most people know her simply as the daughter of late soul music legend, Donny Hathaway. But there is more to her than that. A trained pianist and vocalist, she is a graduate of the Berklee College of Music and her career has spanned two decades. Twenty-one years after the release of her first LP, her career continues to thrive.
Aesthetic Sounds brings you LALAH HATHAWAY’S debut performance live at Jazz Cafe with full band May 17th and 18th.

More great album buzz continues for Kenny Thomas’ brand new set Breathe…
Soulandjazzfunk.com have published a rave review for Kenny’s recent headline show at London’s Jazz Cafe, writing:
“Put KENNY right where he is most comfortable – in front of a live band and with a stunning array of well-crafted and melodic tunes – old and new – and you’re assured of one thing…. KT will deliver! The passion for his craft is written all over his face and with faultless delivery it’s small wonder he’s lauded with adjectives like ‘legend’ and “gifted”.”
