Michael Manson - On the Up and Up

From the Album: On the Up and Up, Year of Release: 2023#jazz#smoothjazz Lyrics: On the Up and Up Michael Manson is a highly gifted bass player. He already performed with Kirk Whalum, Brian Culbertson, George Duke or Oletta Adams to just name a few. Like most of the contemporary jazz artists he was on the search of a new label. Michael Manson is a talented, school-educated, and experienced musician and music educator. His training is inclusive of intensive work in the Classic, Jazz, Gospel, and R&B genres of music. Also, inclusive of his Christian philosophy and training, giving is a crucial part of his lifestyle. In keeping with this, music as a gift is meant that is meant to serve. Therefore, Michael feels that the gift given to him is to be given back to serve others, specifically his community. For Michael Manson, the bottom line has always been great music. Since he first picked up a guitar (not a bass), he has moved persistently from strength to strength, one association leading inevitably to another in a career that has brought him front and center with the most respected names in jazz, gospel, R&B, rock, and pop. Manson’s uniquely lyrical voice has its roots in Chicago, Illinois. Returning to Chicago State University, he joined the Chicago State Gospel Choir, and, in Manson’s words, “things started snowballing.“ One gig or association would lead to another, with Manson playing with one Gospel great after another: Tramaine Hawkins, Vanessa Bell Armstrong, Jessy Dixon, and James Cleveland. He even played on the Winan’s album All Out, only the first of many times he would perform with childhood musical heroes.
