Tawanna Shaunte brought the heat from Jackson, MS for the Black History Month kick-off concert at the Community Folk Art Center (CFAC).
Singer/songwriter Tawanna Shaunte and her band: Bill Perry, Jr. (keys), Brady Watt (bass) Xayvon Jamison (drums) pounced on the opportunity to make their mark on Friday. Shaunte brought vocal tenacity and the band generated almost enough soulful heat to warm up the entire Connective Corridor. The memorable jam session served as the kick-off for Black History Month.
In case you missed it, get a taste of their southern-style jazz/blues nouveau in the clip below.
The show was another effective collaboration between CFAC and WAER-FM 88.

CNY’s Tamar would be the perfect choice to sing the National Anthem at a Syracuse v. Georgetown or Syracuse v. Duke game basketball game in the future. We saw her sing the chill bumps out of people during an impromptu gig at the Pan African Village last week. Her vocal power would be the perfect lead in for a memorable big-time athletic contest. The team won’t play either in the coming season, thumb but maybe she can sing for the Big Ten/ACC Challenge Game (Dec. 5).
