<p style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3823860010?profile=original" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/3823860010?profile=RESIZE_710x" class="align-full"/></a>James Worthy releases his new soulful R&B sound to fans with the release of his long-awaited 2nd EP, <strong><em>Kaleidoscopes</em></strong>. The forthcoming record is a follow-up from his 2019 debut EP "Blu Leisure". This new body of work was released on January 17, 2020, and is available on all digital platforms.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;"> Along with the EP announcement, James has interesting collaborations on the project which include artists such as: <strong>Ray Lavender, Ruff Endz, Drag-On, Truth Hurts, & Jillisa Lynn</strong>. James will be touring regionally with special guests to be announced along with tour dates. James recorded most of <em>Kaleidoscopes </em>in his studio in Atlanta, GA with engineer Styalistic. Worthy has worked with producers Styalistic, Shay Mizz, and Frisktrackz on this project.</p>
<p style="font-weight: 400;"><em> Kaleidoscopes </em>is composed of 7 tracks that according to James "Spent Months crafting, recreating, and analyzing" to bring out the best product. Each song gives different musical textures within the R&B genre, but with heavy melodic influences, and arrangements with songs like “This Wave” or more soulful like “Show Me”. While each song varies in tone, they all are originals, and circle back to one universal theme. “Kaleidoscopes is a urban soul-filled, catchy collection of reminders that love, harmony, diversity, and unity can co-exist in our modern world,” says Worthy. The body of work is packed with layers of gauzy synth textures, and sweet hooks with a glossy finish on production, and of course James Worthy’s smooth vocals. </p>James Worthy - I Can Tell FT.

<p>There is a considerable learning curve for the use and production of webnars and webcasts. on networks such as ustream, live stream, vimeo, etc. Much like using this social network TAN as compared with using a static website. it well worth your while to spend some time practicing and learning these skills, as this is the wave of the future for communications. These new networks are interactive and some are live similar to televsion. You can use a smart phone, computer, smart televsion (televsion with internet) or other internet devises to view these webcasts adn webnars.</p>music for diez y sies (Sept 16) - Mexican Indepedence Daytag:mecatx.ning.com,2010-09-02:3918253:BlogPost:17452010-09-02T02:38:33.000ZDaniel Kotthttps://mecatx.ning.com/profile/DanielKott

"This has been awesome for a first-time event. I would really say this is a dream come true."<br/><br/>Wren is the event's organizer, and she wanted the festival to accomplish a great deal and the festival did just that, she said.<br/><br/>It was held to promote the arts in an outdoor environment, but it was also meant to help raise money for the women and children's shelter in Kempner run by Christ on the Move Evangelist, Wren said.<br/><br/>The festival promoted the arts by giving artists and art organizations a chance to gather and promote themselves, and it raised money for the shelter by selling those artist spots for a minimal fee.<br/><br/>A quilt raffle also raised money for the shelter.<br/><br/>"Not only do you do something that is heartwarming for yourself, but it benefits someone else too," Wren said.<br/><br/>The Multi-Ethnic Cultural & Arts Association joined the festival with a pair of Texas clog dancers performing and by providing music throughout the day.<br/><br/>"We are pleased to be here, and they want us here," MECA's Dan Knott said. "For a first time, this is an especially good turn out."<br/><br/>About 150 people were in attendance.<br/><br/>MECA used the event to not only show off its performance art but also as an opportunity to enroll more talent into its organization.<br/><br/>"This is a recruiting booth for us," Knott said.<br/><br/>Other entertainment during the day included storytelling, a poetry slam and a seminar on self-publishing. </font></span></p>
