CHRISTIE LENEE
Christie Lenée has been capturing a wide audience across the US, touring frequently and delivering vibrant energy at every show. Her unique guitar work is often compared to visionaries like Michael Hedges, Joni Mitchell, Andy McKee, and John Mayer- fusing folky/funky playfulness with pop/rock inspired songs and virtuosic guitar compositions. Christie has been seen many times on stage with Tim Reynolds (guitarist for Dave Matthews Band) and a stellar cast of musicians including Amy Ray (Indigo Girls), Jeff Coffin, and Stanley Jordan.
Christie's most recent album "Live at Hideaway Cafe" is a Finalist for "Best CD of 2014" for the Indie Acoustic Project Awards and has received raving reviews by music fans across the country.
GEORGE TORTORELLI
George Tortorelli/ MedicineWind is a Master Bamboo Flute Designer and Player. He has been a Multi-Instrumentalist since the age of 12. Being raised in a musical family he had access to many instruments, and went on to perform in rock bands throughout south Florida. Before long he became aware of the mind and body stress from the rock and roll lifestyle. He longed for simpler pastures and retreated to the forests of north Florida with a collection of rare and exotic instruments. It was there in the beauty and silence that the purest harmonies of nature came through him. He discovered and planted an abundance of bamboo on his land, and commenced expanding his growing flute collection with flutes of his own design.
His music and concerts were so loved by surrounding communities that he became known as "Medicine Wind" for the healing sound qualities of his Meditative, Peaceful music. He started his own company called Medicine Wind Music, and commenced a successful recording career and custom flute design for fine arts festivals.
George has appeared with such notables as: Ram Dass, Deepak Chopra, Rasa, Richie Havens, Pat Metheny, Lisa Lynne, Michael Hedges, Tuck & Pattie, Will Ackerman, David Arkenstone, Barbara Higbie, Liz Story and many more.
All of The Jewel Box Concerts are produced by Shakerag Culture Center Inc., and the City of Gainesville Dept of Parks, Recreation, and Cultural Affairs.
