Fun Facts About the Headliners:

• Karen Brown  has so much range in her voice. She performed a tribute to Aretha Franklin's "Until You Come Back To Me" at the Memphis Music Hall of Fame induction ceremony in 2018. Also, Karen Brown was nominated for Best Local Singer in Memphis Flyer's 2023 Best of Memphis.
• Boyz II Men performed live in Memphis at the Orpheum  Theatre on May 13, 2023. J. Buck was their lively opening act. In my eyes, he's bringing soul back into today's music scene.
• Whether is a stage with a live band behind her, or stage with theatrical props, Stefanie Bolton's talents leave the audience in awe. She performs at local live music venues, and in plays put on by Hattiloo Theatre.
• Tonya Dyson is the Creative Director of Memphis Slim Collaboratory. She dabbles in lots more cultural initiatives such as Welcome to Neosoulville, her radio show on WYXR, Future Insiders Program partnership, and more.
