Flutist, vocalist, and songwriter, Ragan Whiteside is taking the Contemporary Jazz world by storm.  With her unique style and soulful vibe, this triple threat is bringing the flute back into mainstream focus. Ragan began her musical journey at 5. She played the piano, drums, and the violin, but found her true love in playing the flute. From there she went on to study classical music.  She attended the Cleveland Institute of Music and the Harid Conservatory, where she earned a Bachelor of Music-Performance degree. Winner of the Capital Jazz New Artist Competition, she released her debut album, Class Axe in 2007. Her sophomore release, Evolve showcases her melodious musicianship as a flutist, her sultry vocals, and soulful compositions.  www.raganwhiteside.com

Diva JC and Mimi Johnson welcome vocalist and composer Nick Mathis to discuss their roles as music service providers.

The shift from being a musician to being a music service provider requires conscious reflection on the status and responsibilities of the latter professional.  Knowing what the customer wants, coupled with caring creates a business atmosphere for marketers to grow their market share.  In the music industry, this philosophy holds true.  Jazz musicians that work a lot are savvy about negotiating attractive venues, spreading the word and compiling a fan base.  Every business relies on the value proposition, that is, reasonable exchange that results in emotional pleasure.  It behooves music service providers to seek jobs at luxurious venues, where people connect, while enjoying good wine and food at a great destination.
