13 Slim Man6:00 pm Smooth Jazz $www.ticketmaster.com cover Slim ManApril 13 @ 6:00 pm Slim Man won Best Jazz Vocalist in 2021 at the Coachella Music Awards. Fifth year in a row. Winner! Winner! Meatball dinner! The Slim Man LIVE at Vicky’s double CD won ALBUM OF THE YEAR at the Coachella Music Awards in 2021. And his new cookbook, Slim Man Cooks Volume 2, was just released in January 2022. So, how did Mr. Man get to this point? Here’s the skinny on Slim Man… Conceived on the Isle of Capri in Italy, he was born in Baltimore, Maryland. When he was 5 years old, Slim Man saw a movie with his dad. That film was The Five Pennies, and when Slim Boy saw Louis Armstrong play the trumpet and sing, he told his Dad, ”That’s what I want to do.” Slim Man studied trumpet for the next 9 years, and taught himself how to play piano and guitar. After studying piano, composition, and harmony at Peabody Institute in Baltimore, MD, Slim Man got signed as a songwriter to Motown Records. He’s had songs recorded by the Temptations, Angela Bofill, Carl Anderson, and others. Slim Man recorded a CD for Motown, which gave birth to his signature style–a unique blend of jazz, soul, and pop. Slim Man went on to form the band BootCamp, who had two of the first 100 videos ever played on MTV. Those videos catapulted BootCamp into a successful concert career, performing with The B-52s, Squeeze, Split Enz, Johnny Winter, and others. After BootCamp broke up, Slim Man organized and hosted a nationwide country music talent contest. It was during this contest that he got the nickname Slim Man. Slim’s big discovery during the contest was in Tulsa, Oklahoma, at a honkytonk called Tulsa City Limits. The guy who won the contest that night was Ronnie Dunn, who went on to win the national finals in Nashville, and later hooked up with Kix Brooks to form the multiple Grammy award-winning country music duo, Brooks and Dunn. After the Marlboro contest, Slim Man released his debut CD End of the Rainbow. This CD made many Top Ten lists for the year, and inspired JD Considine (Rolling Stone) to write… | 14 Hep Tights w/ TA Tomlinson6:00 pm Blues $5 cover | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 Groove Squad8:00 pm R&B $15 cover Groove SquadApril 19 @ 8:00 pm THE GROOVE-SQUAD is one of the hottest rising bands in San Diego.
