March 25 Tia Steward and Antoine Tanyhill
You’ve seen this dynamic singing duo at First Fridays, and now you can hear them harmonizing their favorite songs this Thursday night!

April 1 Talisha Holmes
With her prolific jazz harmonies and ability to sound good singing the phonebook, Ms. Talisha is guaranteed to make you nod your head. We might have a special guest, so make sure you stay tuned for this night.


April 8 J Rawls & Bobbi Floyd Townes
The founder of The Liquid Crystal Project will be on the 1s on the 2s this Thursday. If you didn’t get to make it to their European Tour (and chances are you didn’t) you will get to see what makes them go wild!
Mrs. Bobbi Floyd Townes, daughter of piano legend Bobby Floyd will also be blessing the mic and celebrating her wedding anniversary (awww!).


April 15 BJazz Birthday Bash/ Tribute to Herbie Hancock
Did you know the LCP’s B Jazz and his idol Jazz legend Herbie Hancock share the same birthday (April 12)? This night will be truly unique as B Jazz and some special guests pay homage to his favorite musician, and we party like it’s 1981!


April 22 Renee Dion & Speak Williams
Ms. Renee has been blessing the mic, at request during BLEND for a while. Her claim to fame: freestyling soul and R&B songs off the top of her head that give her such a unique vibe…there’s no one to compare her to!
Speak Williams is no stranger to BLEND. Last month’s performance was legendary and inspired a late night cypher outside of Barrio. He will be back this Thursday with his Hip Hop, Soul and Spoken Word hybrid!

Columbus, let’s say THANK YOU by celebrating Talisha this Thursday at BLEND! She will be performing some of her favorites and songs off her highly anticipated new project, along with some of vocal friends. Let’s make this a party Talisha will never forget!
