95.5 Spring Jam with Anthony Hamilton Set for Fabulous Fox, 4/24

95.5 Spring Jam starring Anthony Hamilton with special guests Angie Stone and Lyfe Jennings is coming live to the Fabulous Fox Theatre Sunday, April 24 at 7:30 p.m.

Anthony Hamilton

Surviving the test of time, Anthony Hamilton will soon gift his fans with yet another compilation baring his heart and soul. Millions across the globe have bought his albums, falling deeply in love with raw, passionate notes that tell a story so familiar that it belongs to us all. His new album, "What I'm Feelin'," merges a life-long journey with a musical evolution that never once sacrifices his roots.

With seven widely released albums paving the way, the new project stays true to his core yet explores the depths of where this gifted voice can flow. His first single "Amen," produced by Salaam Remi and James Poyser, celebrates the beauty of a woman in true Anthony style. "It's not just about her physical attributes," he noted. "It's about appreciating everything she brings to the table from going to work, cooking for you, praying for you, and loving you from an authentic place."

And it's his authenticity and honest depiction of the average man's woes that keep the audience searching for him year after year. Another track from the new album, "Walk in my Shoes," reminds us that no one is immune to mistakes, trials, and defeats. His vocals perfectly convey a pain so deep, that the song leaves little room for misinterpretation.

Although his voice belongs to the world having worked with icons like D'Angelo and 2Pac, his vocals still serve as North Carolina's soundtrack. Even in the presence of longstanding, global celebration, humility remains his greatest asset. "It means so much that people are still seeking me after so many years without an album coming out," he shared. "They could have moved on." In the five-year span between his last album "Back to Love" and "What I'm Feelin'," Anthony released his first holiday album and even made a guest appearance on the Fox hit show EMPIRE, one of the highest rated episodes of the season.

This spiritual vessel takes nothing for granted and believes that his "heaven sent" talent results from God's plan for his life. He continues to grow while always focusing on what fans want. "There are slight shifts you can make but you just can't leave the people," he said. "If we gon' ride together, we gon' ride together." And oh what a ride it has been.

Angie Stone

Grammy nominated singer Angie Stone is one of those artists with a Midas touch. Her buttery smooth honey-toned pipes, undeniable gritty soulfulness and epic songwriting talents have been called upon by everyone from Mary J. Blige, Stevie Wonder, D'Angelo, Alicia Keys and Lenny Kravitz, to name a few. Rolling Stone Magazine once declared, "When soul music was in the lost and found, she came along to claim it." It is this belief that has made Stone the go-to woman for three different record labels when they were creating a new sound and vision. In the 70s, it was Angie Stone who helped to define the sound of the now legendary Sugar Hill Records as a member of the first recorded female rap group, Sequence. Their hit, "Funk You Up," is a classic that gets folks moving to this day! Fast forward, Clive Davis tapped Stone's iconic sound in the early 2000s, when he launched J Records. She recorded her gold-selling Mahogany Soul for the label and Stone Love. The in- demand Renaissance woman moves seamlessly from the studio and stage (she's starred on Broadway) to television and silver screen without missing a beat. A legend in this tough business, Angie Stone stands in a class by herself. In September 2015 BET/CENTRIC made Stone the focus of their acclaimed being artist profile series, capturing just how amazing this dynamic's life and career has been.

Lyfe Jennings

Lyfe Jennings (born Chester Jennings in Toledo, Ohio) is an African American R&B and soul singer-songwriter, record producer, and instrumentalist. He plays the guitar, bass, and piano which he integrates into his music. Jennings began singing at a young age in a Toledo church choir. He later joined a group called The Dotsons with two of his cousins and his older brother, Jay. The group separated in the early 1990s, and Jennings rediscovered music and started a music program at an Ohio prison where he was serving a ten-year sentence on an arson-related charge. He has cited Erykah Badu's 1997 album Baduizm as one of the reasons for his rediscovery. Jennings was released from prison in December 2002 and started to pursue a solo career in music. In January 2003, he performed in Harlem at the Showtime at The Apollo. The same year, he also independently released his first EP, What Is Love. To further pursue his career, Jennings moved to New York City where he performed at rapper Nelly's concert at Radio City Music Hall, at an NAACP convention where he performed an original song called "Thank God for the NAACP", and at the Cafeteria in Chelsea, Manhattan during the blackout on August 14. He signed with Columbia Records and released his debut album Lyfe 268-192 (268-192 was his inmate number) in August 2004. His first single was Stick Up Kid, which didn't see much success until after the album was released. The album featured his hit single "Must Be Nice". Jennings' second album The Phoenix was released in August 2006. The first single, "S.E.X.", features Jennings' protégé, singer LaLa Brown.
