Mobetta Thursdays Curated By Maurice Brown Presents: Chelsea Baratz September 23rd

Mobetta Thursdays curated by Grammy Award-winning Maurice Brown is taking over Brooklyn's newest Music Venue "Now and Then NYC!" Enjoy some new material along with covers and impromptu songs made up on the fly by some of the world's most talented musicians. This week September 2nd Mobetta Thursdays Presents: Chelsea Baratz

Described by Urban Music Scene as “consummate, thoughtful and prodigious”, saxophonist Chelsea Baratz wields formidable genre-defying sensibilities and songwriting chops that cut at the knees of convention. The music chose the Pittsburgh born-and- raised saxophonist at an early age; out of that Steel City creative fire came an amalgam of influences that molded her signature versatility and musical sensitivities. Chelsea was educated by the elites of modern Pittsburgh jazz royalty, which included Roger Humphries, Dwayne Dolphin, and Sean Jones.
Chelsea continued her musical pilgrimage when she relocated to New York City in 2006. While studying at the New School, Chelsea recorded her debut album In Faith while simultaneously asserting herself as a dynamite presence on the New York scene. Since graduating in 2009, Chelsea has worked with such illustrious names as Aretha Franklin, Talib Kweli, Om’mas Keith, Kali Uchis, Matt Schofield, Orin Evans, Ben Williams and Dezron Douglas, among many others. Most recently, Chelsea continues to grace the stages & personnel lists with artists of critical acclaim such as Maurice Brown’s The Mood, Brandee Younger’s Somewhere Different, and Emmaline’s current single "Get Lost".
