2. Whatโs This All About?
SOUL meets JAZZ Tour will bring together the largest names in soul and jazz music, reminding fans
across the country that almost every style of American music has been influenced by jazz.
Throughout time, soul music and jazz have mixed and mingled on inner-city street corners, music
halls, churches and on numerous gold and platinum records. Indeed, soul and jazz music are true
American originals that tell the story of our past. SOUL meets JAZZ Tour will carry on this tradition
as we live the next chapter in American history.
SOUL meets JAZZ Tour series will kick off in Orlando, Florida with a presentation by jazz guru
David Benoit, and soul goddess, Amel Larrieux.
SOUL meets JAZZ Tour will be covered by all major media outlets including Entertainment
Tonight, E! Entertainment, The Insider, Access Hollywood, MTV, VH1 and the BET JAZZ
Network.
Major print and web magazines, satellite radio and pod casters will also cover the tour. Additional

SOUL meets JAZZ Tour will also be filmed by Murphy Boyz Entertainment for use in film, DVD
and Internet content. The tourโs audio and artist interviews will be released through Sands Street

the top five on the R&B charts before being certified gold in
