Tiwa Savage @ Harborwalk Sounds: Berklee @ The ICA -- FREE -- Presented by Jazz Revelation Records
Thursday July 19, 2007 at 6:00pm
Institute of Contemporary Art / Boston
100 Northern Ave
Boston, Massachusetts Get Directions
Born in Nigeria and raised in London, Tiwa Savage is an R&B/soul singer known for her electric performances. Before coming to Berklee, she spent years honing her stage presence as a background vocalist for George Michael, Mary J. Blige, Chaka Khan, Kelly Clarkson, Sheila E, and others. Savage has also shared the stage with Sting, Destiny’s Child, Black Eyed Peas, and Robbie Williams. Savage, who just graduated from Berklee, will release a new album shortly.

Jazz Revelation Records presents the 3rd Annual Kendall Square Concert Series, and is collaborating for the first time with the Institute of Contemporary Art to present Harborwalk Sounds: Berklee at the ICA. Both series offer FREE live music on Thursdays throughout the summer (complete schedule of dates and times below). Artists include Berklee student and alumni jazz, world, Latin, and r&b musicians, some of whom are featured on the new Jazz Revelation Records CD The New Old School, including Jake Hertzog, MUNDuO, Mateo Lugo, Zili Misik, Daniel Ori, Alex Terrier, and Juan Ospina.

Jazz Revelation Records (JRR), Berklee's student-run jazz record label, was formed in the spring of 2003. The label is made possible by a grant funded by the college. Under previous management, Jazz Revelation Records successfully released the compilation CDs Rebirth, Two, and Ars Nova. Under the direction of current president Michael Borgida, the label has just released its fourth album, The New Old School. For the new CD, JRR gathered eight young, passionate, and committed artists from around the world, all speaking the traditional language of jazz in a new way.

Harborwalk Sounds: Berklee at the ICA takes place at the museum’s Putnam Investments Plaza, 100 Northern Avenue, on Boston’s waterfront, three Thursdays a month, 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., June 14 – August 23. For more information, please call the ICA at (617) 478-3100.
