The Gospel According To Jazz 'Kirk Whalum' One

The Gospel According To Jazz "Kirk Whalum" (One) 2013
Kirk Whalum - An ordained minister, Kirk has earned his Masters of Art in Religion. It is in this spirit that he serves his community, frequently performing at nursing homes, schools and missions. There is also his daily fifteen-minute podcast, Bible in Your Ear (BIYE), in which he invites you to listen along as he reads the Bible in a year. In addition to music and ministry, Kirk has a passion to educate young, aspiring musicians and as such, he currently serves as Chief Creative Officer of the STAX Music Academy and the STAX Museum of American Soul Music in his hometown of Memphis, TN. Kirk is the recipient of numerous awards and acknowledgements for his musical excellence including three Dove Award nominations, an NAACP Image Award nomination and has won two Stellar Awards-Gospel music’s highest honor. An eleven time Grammy nominee, Kirk won his first Grammy award for Best Gospel Song (“It’s What I Do”-featuring Lalah Hathaway) alongside life-long friend and gifted writer, Jerry Peters.
Soulful, passionate, stirring...these are the words most often used to describe Kirk’s music. Forged from his Memphis, (TN) gospel roots and his 1980‘s initiation into the thriving Houston, TX nightclub scene, Kirk’s big, rich tenor sound is unmistakably his. The 80’s were highlighted by Kirk’s stepping out of his blossoming sideman role and forming his own band. It was there that Kirk ultimately developed both his “voice” and songwriting in the crucible of the local club scene––especially at a rooftop club called Cody’s. It was also in Houston where jazz pianist Bob James “discovered” him and brought him on tour, which led to five successful albums with Columbia Records, including Cache, Kirk’s first #1 album. As well, Kirk and Bob received a Grammy nomination for their collaboration album, Joined at the Hip. After moving to Los Angeles, Kirk became an in demand session player for top artists like, Barbara Streisand, Al Jarreau, Luther Vandross, Larry Carlton, Quincy Jones and most notably, Whitney Houston, amongst many others. It’s his sax heard on the mega-hit, “I Will Always Love You.” Kirk soon followed that career high point with his phenomenal hit album released on Warner Bros. Records, For You, perhaps the most successful of over 25 solo recordings to date; others include his eclectic Gospel According to Jazz series, (Chapters 1, 2 and 3). Artist Includes: George Duke, Alfie Durio, Paul Jackson Jr., Michael Mason, Kyle Whalum, Fred White, Jonathan Butler, Kim Burrell, Tata Vega, Lalah Hathaway, Doc Powell, John Stoddart, Jerry Peters and many other artist. (El Todopoderoso-spanish) English meaning is "The All Mighty"
Kirk Whalum's music is available at Apple iTunes, Spotify, Google Play, and Amazon Music.

Thanks Brother Kirk for wholesome music I can listen to as I prepare sermons! We sure appreciate your Christ-Centered testimony and tunes!

[anthonyspencer]

Who else gets it: your audience, your following, your crew. IF they don’t get, Believe this in your heart, it’s not your problem.

Gifts:
For me, it’s vocal, visual, performing arts, and any other venue. Remember this: YOU are just the messenger. You have no idea where, who, how, when it will touch someone. … just allow yourself to be the instrument … folks, for generations, after you have transitioned, will get it, and Remember that you were obedient to YOUR call to ministry.

JUST LISTEN, HEAR, and obey YOUR CALLING. AMEN

Tony
