MAINSTAY - Joe Holt Presents "Smooth Soul" with Vaughn Bratcher

For his final “First Friday” program of 2022, pianist/ accompanist/ impresario Joe Holt presents a program titled Vaughn Bratcher and Friends - "Smooth Soul".  Joe and Vaughn will be joined by other members of the Vaughn Bratcher Project including Tracey Cutler on sax and Dave Gladding on drums.

The smooth sounds of a Vaughn Bratcher performance are geared for listening entertainment although the audience is often moved to dance. The song list for one of his performances covers tunes such as “Wine Light” by Grover Washington, instrumental R &B “Can’t Hide Love” by Earth Wind & Fire, and “What’s Going On” by Marvin Gaye, along with many more classic soul favorites.

Vaughn Bratcher put down his cornet and picked up his first Electric Bass Guitar at the age of 13. He has since performed with numerous groups, as well as recorded with several different artists, including Al Green, Cyrus Chestnut, Gary Thomas, Betty Wright, Doris Duke, Z.Z. Hill, Dorothy Norwood, Steve Carrington, and guitarist Paul Bollenback.
