With this in mind, bassist and vocalist Billy Thornton combines his love of playing in the jazz style with the pop and rock songs he grew up listening to. Billy and his band mates enjoy inventing new harmonic and rhythmic backdrops for songs by artists such as The Beatles, Taylor Swift, Jimi Hendrix, Blondie, and Britney Spears. With the spirit of play and creativity at the forefront, these songs become vehicles for exploration and musical joy. Billy Thornton is no stranger to jazz lovers in the southeast as a bassist. He is based in Atlanta, Georgia and has been a member of bands in many musical styles from jazz to R&B and from top-40 pop to Celtic Rock. As a vocalist, Billy expresses himself with honesty. He sings songs that he loves and finds something new in each song every night. The spirit of playing jazz music is in group improvisation, and this isn’t limited to songs from a certain era. The Billy Thornton Quartet plays the songs of today knowing they will become jazz standards.

His sophomore album “A Lot of Livin’ to Do” (2020) featured the likes of bass luminary Christian McBride, achieving viral online fame w/his vocalese rendition of "Social Call" ft. Veronica Swift that's been transcribed and covered by singers around the world.

DALINE & DIEGO

Fri, Sep 06

Show Ticket $25 Dinner is required with all reservations. *6:30 PM SHOW - DINNER RESERVATIONS FROM 5:15 PM *9:00 PM SHOW - DINNER RESERVATIONS FROM 8:00 PM New York City and Mexico City are coming to Hilton Head Island, returning to The Jazz Corner! The international duo, vocalist Daline Jones and pianist Diego Ramirez, will mesmerize you with their music that mixes Jazz with American and Latin flavors. Their motto is to “play music that makes you feel good”. Enjoy Daline and Diego at The Jazz Corner! Daline Jones and Diego Ramirez have played together for more than 17 years. While they spend most of the year performing for the crowds in the world-famous resorts of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, the Duo has played internationally as well, in the US and Europe. They were specail invited guests at the 2024 Copenhagen Jazz Festival. They are known for their polished musicality and for their friendliness with the audience. Daline’s voice has been compared to Adele, Natalie Cole, and Diana Krall, because her voice has power and sparkle, plus a soft, sultry coolness. Yet, one listen will tell you Daline's voice is completely her own. Her style is classy and polished, warm and welcoming. Her voice says, "Come in, stay awhile, let's enjoy this." She makes her audience feel like they are long time friends. Her singing and songwriting chops are the legacy of her famous Beat-poet father, Jazz surrealist, Ted Joans. He must have known she would be an artist, naming her after his fellow Surrealist, Salvador Dali. Ted made sure Daline spent her early years listening to, and seeing live Jazz in the clubs of their native New York City. After NYC, Daline lived near Detroit, MI, and the Motown sound added to her musical education. That smart, fortunate exposure to Jazz and R&B when she was so young, lead her to pursue a life in music, and now her experience onstage makes her a relaxed professional. Daline says her musical peak experience happened on November 11, 2020, when Stevie Wonder showed up (unexpectedly and unannounced) at her gig at Cabo's "Jazz On The Rocks". The band did not know he was in the house, until a waiter came up and told them, "Stevie Wonder wants to come up onstage with you!" Daline remembers, “We thought Stevie wanted to play, so Diego offered him the piano, but he loved the way Diego was playing and instead joined me in singing ”Summertime". It was incredible!" Luckily for all, a waiter captured the spontaneous performance on a cell phone so we can all enjoy the video forever. Daline's earliest recording sessions were for Lionel Richie and the Commodores, working with the top studio session vocalists in the business. She released several of her own critically acclaimed albums; achieving Billboard's "Top 20" on the Contemporary Jazz charts. Headlining the famous Starlight Room in San Francisco, Daline was the lead singer for the renowned Starlight Orchestra from 1995-2005, before moving to Los Cabos, Mexico where she now makes her home. She works with pianist/composer Diego Ramirez in the best venues of Cabo. They perform frequently at the famous Zinco Jazz Club in Mexico City and they have headlined the San Jose Jazz Weekend, San Miguel de Allende Jazz & Blues Festival, and the Life Luxe Jazz Experience. And now, they are going to Copenhagen, Denmark to perform as part of the prestigious Copenhagen Jazz Festival in July 2024. Together, Daline and Diego have written and recorded many original songs and recorded several albums/CDs. They are currently at work on a new album of original songs for release in 2024. "The gorgeous and unforgettable vocalist Daline Jones is a living expression of talent continuing to blossom!" - Destino Magazine, Mexico

Nine #1 hits. Ten Top 10 hits. 40 million records. Play their greatest hits and don’t be surprised if you know EVERY SONG! Driven by Daryl Hall’s blue-eyed soul vocals, Hall & Oates were the bridge from 70’s to 80’s pop as well as one of the most successful cross-over groups, scoring numerous #1 R&B hits.

While casting a spellbinding smile, she mesmerizes her captive audience with incredible harmonies and rhythms. Best known for her role as the choir soloist in the 1985 Oscar-nominated film The Color Purple, Maria Howell is the perfect combination of artistry and entertainment.

Joe Alterman Trio

Joe Alterman Trio

Fri, Sep 27

Show Ticket $25 Dinner is required with all reservations. *6:30 PM SHOW - DINNER RESERVATIONS FROM 5:15 PM *9:00 PM SHOW - DINNER RESERVATIONS FROM 8:00 PM "Joe Alterman is a breath of fresh air on the music scene. I love hearing him play! It’s happy music with tasty meat on the bones! Although much younger than I, he is an inspiration to me! His piano playing, his will to explore and his ability to swing is a joy to behold.” - Ramsey Lewis “Joe is tiny, but only in stature. As a man and a musician he is already a giant. He’s on a ‘blow your mind’ level.” - Les McCann “Having known Joe Alterman on a personal level, I can attest to the fact that he is a very special artist.” - Ahmad Jamal “Pianist Joe Alterman pulls off one of the rarer feats in modern jazz: he swings — hard.” – Downbeat Magazine Atlanta native Joe Alterman expresses a certain upbeat naivete, with a broad smile and bright eyes that make you feel welcome. One would not guess that this is a man hailed by greats; Ramsey Lewis describes his music as "happy music with tasty meat on the bones," Les McCann states "Joe's on a 'blow your mind' level," and Ahmad Jamal calls him "a very special artist." Journalist Nat Hentoff championed three of Alterman’s albums, as well as his writing (Joe wrote liner notes to three Wynton Marsalis/JLCO albums), calling one of Joe’s columns “one of the very best pieces on the essence of jazz, the spirit of jazz, that I’ve ever read, and I’m not exaggerating.” Joe Alterman began at NYU with a BA and Masters in Jazz Piano from NYU and has since performed at many world renowned venues including the Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center, Birdland and Blue Note alongside Houston Person, Les McCann, Dick Gregory, Ramsey Lewis, and his own trio, among others. Downbeat describes his sound as “rooted in the blues, and with a touch reminiscent of the great pianists of the 1950s—Red Garland, Ahmad Jamal, Bill Evans.” It is clear Joe hits all of the necessary points for Jazz critics and fans alike. But there is more to the story, of course. The 21st century has brought another transition for this thing called jazz; in one moment we see the push and pull between tradition and progression, and in another we see Pop and Hip-Hop musicians emulating and sampling. In Joe Alterman we find none of this struggle; the music just sounds good. Our conscious faculties are instantly disabled as we tap our feet, feeling the intent and joy of his playing. An old classic is new when you feel good in the moment. Or, as Hentoff wrote about Alterman in the Wall Street Journal, "Alterman’s continually evolving presence on the jazz scene surely makes people smile and, if the room is right, dance. There’ll be no need for any last rites of jazz.”

I love hearing him play! It’s happy music with tasty meat on the bones! Although much younger than I, he is an inspiration to me! His piano playing, his will to explore and his ability to swing is a joy to behold.” - Ramsey Lewis “Joe is tiny, but only in stature. As a man and a musician he is already a giant. He’s on a ‘blow your mind’ level.” - Les McCann “Having known Joe Alterman on a personal level, I can attest to the fact that he is a very special artist.” - Ahmad Jamal “Pianist Joe Alterman pulls off one of the rarer feats in modern jazz: he swings — hard.” – Downbeat Magazine Atlanta native Joe Alterman expresses a certain upbeat naivete, with a broad smile and bright eyes that make you feel welcome. One would not guess that this is a man hailed by greats; Ramsey Lewis describes his music as "happy music with tasty meat on the bones," Les McCann states "Joe's on a 'blow your mind' level," and Ahmad Jamal calls him "a very special artist." Journalist Nat Hentoff championed three of Alterman’s albums, as well as his writing (Joe wrote liner notes to three Wynton Marsalis/JLCO albums), calling one of Joe’s columns “one of the very best pieces on the essence of jazz, the spirit of jazz, that I’ve ever read, and I’m not exaggerating.” Joe Alterman began at NYU with a BA and Masters in Jazz Piano from NYU and has since performed at many world renowned venues including the Kennedy Center, Lincoln Center, Birdland and Blue Note alongside Houston Person, Les McCann, Dick Gregory, Ramsey Lewis, and his own trio, among others. Downbeat describes his sound as “rooted in the blues, and with a touch reminiscent of the great pianists of the 1950s—Red Garland, Ahmad Jamal, Bill Evans.” It is clear Joe hits all of the necessary points for Jazz critics and fans alike.
