QEW Slam Poet

Here are a few of the amazing poets who ripped the stage at the 6th Annual Queen Elizabeth Way (QEW) Regional Slam event on Saturday night. The event was held at the Community Folk Art Center’s (CFAC) black box theater and hosted by Syracuse’s Underground Poetry Spot.

The winning team was  Nitty Gritty.

Maestro the Beatmaster of the Orange

Maestro definitely moves the crowd. It was good to see him on the Connective Corridor on Saturday.  We hope he is a top choice when they finally do a an outdoor fashion event at Forman Park, or when the choose another artist to perform/ride the 443 Centro Bus.

Larry and Margaret Luttinger dance to the sounds of Nancy Kelly at Friday night's Sitrus event.

Larry and Margaret Luttinger groove to the sounds of vocalist Nancy Kelly at Friday night’s Sitrus event. Larry is one of the few producers/drummers who has the dance moves to match his musicianship.

What a way to kick-off 2015’s music season.

Last night’s Jazz at Sitrus event was filled to the brim (restaurant and bar) to take in the musical experience that is Nancy Kelly.  Kelly was backed by the usual suspects: Losito (organ), Kelley (drums) and Carello (sax). If this is any indication, the January Jazzfest should be massive. Kelly will be a featured artist at that event, which will be held January 25 in Baldwinsville.

Nancy Kelly and one of her students, Will Gorman, have an old fashion skat-off before the show intermission last night.

Sophomore Surprise

Nottingham High School Point Guard Malik Zachery is on the rise this season.

Nottingham High School point guard Malik Zachery is on the rise this season.  He finished with 19 points yesterday in a win over Corcoran.

During yesterday’s 72-67 win over Nottingham Sophomores Malik Zachery and Jevon Jones made the difference (despite a monster game by Corcoran Jr. Marquis Gilbert). Zachery, who handles the ball like Steph Curry and has a first step like Tommy Gunn, darted through the Corcoran defense with ease and Jones proved to be a big-time finisher, especially in the second half.

The future looks bright for the Coach Jones’s team this season.
