Can A Sista Rock A Mic? Festival
The night shall be a special Experience on 10.31.09 featuring Jaguar
Wright I Alison Carney presented CASRAM Presents, Smirnoff, Census
Bureau, Fusicology, and more!
JAGUAR WRIGHT (philly soul sensation)
Between
major projects fans have been granted the opportunity to receive doses
of Jaguar with the release of various live ...underground projects that
expose a side of her that is present but not as bold on studio
recordings. To see Jaguar Wright perform is to come alive in your seat
–that is if she has not already made you rise to her occasion. Wright
commands her band with maestro like flare and creates impromptu tunes
that display her natural ability to do no wrong to a song. A Jaguar
Wright show is sure to leave the audience exhausted and satiated.
Fans
can look forward to Wright’s third album, tentatively titled, "DAMN,
DAMN, DAMN" set to be released in 2010. Jaguar provided some insight as
to where this attention grabber of an album title came from. When asked
what fans can expect from this CD, Wright replied “Just a bunch of
cussing like DAMN DAMN DAMN! The purpose of this bold title is to cross
my favorite time in music with what’s current in music…to show how we
never truly got away from where we started from. This album will be
Denials Delusions Decisions Volume 2, marking the revival of that
beloved brand name.”
So much so a brand name that Wright has
chosen the 3D’s for her first book title. “Denials Delusions Decisions”
will be a fictional story based on realistic events. The main character
of the book is a woman who has struggled for the better part of 20
years trying to work through the ramifications of her past
indiscretions. With a new EP, a forthcoming album and the debut of
Jaguar the author, there are many great things in store that will only
add to the legacy of this entertainer.

Alison Carney (dc soul rocker)
Alison is perfect pocket grooves, smooth lines over meticulous
melodies and inconceivable versatility- with a reverence of sound.
Her voice flirts with musical reverberations that dance over bass lines and chord progressions with a natural, unabashed style.
Alison
tells audaciously profound, emotionally passionate, playful and witty,
yet candid stories of life and love that unfurl into the gift of song.
Classically
trained, Alison has written and performed on studio albums and toured
in Asia. Before her first L, Alison performed on the Can A Sista Rock A
Mic Festival for 3 years and also performed with Dwele, Slum Village
and Raheem DeVaughn-just to name a few.
