​Atlanta's Hightower Mentored by Jazz Great Freddy Cole 
&
 Drummer for OutKast - Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis -
Lionel Richie, Goodie Mob and others

So here's the story......We were minding our business in the media tent of the 2022 Atlanta Jazz Festival when we looked out and saw a familiar face.  It was our buddy Tony Hightower, so immediately I ran out the tent to go say hello.  We interviewed Tony Hightower many years ago on When We Speak TV, so it was cool to see him again.  After speaking with him, I found out that he was performing with Kathleen Bertrand, which was very exciting to hear.......what was even more exciting was when I found out that he was releasing his second album.  
Needless to say, Tony's team and I immediately got together to schedule an interview with him about the album.....Please take a moment to watch our latest What Do YOU Speak? segment with Tony Hightower.
​At a time when Jazz music could truly use a boost in listenership, singer Tony Hightower is on a mission to be the bridge to help a younger generation of appreciators crossover. With his sophomore album LEGACY entering the marketplace, all-around singer/entertainer Hightower – a protégé of the late Freddy Cole - is leveraging his R&B and Hip-Hop roots to entice more young people to dig jazz.
"Good melody and grooves are good melodies and grooves no matter what genre."
