With much of the nation presently suffering through the worst winter in
decades, perhaps planning to party in luxury Memorial Day Weekend with a
stellar slate of jazz and R&B favorites will help make the snow,
ice and frigid temperatures a bit more bearable. The second edition of

Payne Pest Management San Diego Jazz Festival returns to the posh
Omni La Costa Resort & Spa
in sun-soaked Carlsbad, North San Diego County May 23-25, 2014 for a
memorable three-day weekend of live music, dancing and warm weather fun

Grammy-winning soul balladeer Maxwell headlines
opening night crooning a seductive set from his hit-filled R&B-pop
songbook, a favorite mood-setter for the ladies and Lotharios. Energetic
contemporary jazz-R&B multi-instrumentalist hitmaker Brian Culbertson
bodes to make it “Another Long Night Out” when he performs cuts culled
from his similarly titled new album. Emerging saxophonist Dominic Amato warms up the crowd.
Day two gets underway with jazz, R&B and hip hop mixologist Robert Glasper who is touring in support of “Black Radio 2,” the follow-up to his Grammy-winning disc. Up next, Mint Condition
serves a refreshing taste of Saint Paul, Minnesota that incorporates
the best of old school and new school R&B, funk and soul with tinges
of jazz, Latin and Jamaican rhythms dynamically performed by a
skintight band. Out promoting her forthcoming album, “The Truth,” 8-time
Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Ledisi offers a smooth blend of sophisticated soul seasoned with jazz nuances. “Uncle” Charlie Wilson
will show them how it’s done old school-style when the 2013 BET
Lifetime Achievement Award winner and 7-time Grammy nominee turns it out
during his headline set featuring a dazzling cast of musicians and
dancers along with nearly as many costume changes as Beyoncé.
The Sunday program begins with a riveting show from R&B-soul singer-songwriter Leela James,
a force of nature new school performer cut from the same cloth as such
classic vocalists as Aretha, Stevie, Chaka and Marvin. After, soul-jazz
saxman Boney James will set “The Beat,” his Grammy-nominated disc that spent seven weeks at No. 1 on Billboard’s Jazz Albums chart. Grammy-winning gritty-voiced R&B-soul singer Anthony Hamilton is the festival’s closer.
Phoenix, Arizona-based festival producer BTWconcerts.com will soon announce additional artists.
