Valencia Robinson @8pm

“Powerful...dynamic...soulful.” These are a few of the adjectives used to describe the incredible voice of Valencia Robinson. The richness and purity of Valencia’s vocals are evident after she sings just one note. Her voice has a way of warming the very souls of all listeners. Combining a soulful spirit with poignant lyrics, Valencia disarms audiences and opens their minds to the possibilities of love and life in a style described by many as “Raw Soul.”

With this songstress, there’s no need for the monotonous additives, props or smoke and mirrors to aid her talent. Just surround her with a rhythm guitar, a percussionist, and an attentive audience and Valencia will provide a lifetime of music in a single soulful performance.

Growing up in Memphis, Tennessee, Valencia first began honing her skills in church settings, while listening to such greats as Mahalia Jackson and James Cleveland. After completing high school, Valencia sang in performance spaces around Memphis before deciding to further test her skills.

Saving up enough money for a ticket to Europe, she traveled to France, where she spent the next six months performing in various clubs and theaters as a blues singer. This enriching experience gave Valencia the confidence needed to record her debut CD, a five-song masterpiece that’s considered a classic by music industry professionals and fans across the globe.


Valencia’s talents have allowed her to work with such noted artists as Cleveland, Jack Ashford of The Funk Bros. (Motown), Carla Thomas, and Edwin Hawkins to name just a few. Not one to be boxed in, Valencia has mastered music styles ranging from jazz, soul, folk, opera, and blues.


Audio Architects @10pm



Audio Architects is the brain child of the two brilliant minds of guitarist Dalmar James and vocalist/keyboardist Kwame Brandt Pierce. Both artists work as side men for some of the hottest acts around. Both artists spend time playing music of many types of genres. Giving their style a nice range of sounds from deep blues, old soul and afro beats, with a splash of jazz vibes.
