SoDisrespectful (Toni Menage & Monifah) @ Jello Martini Lounge on Aug. 26th and 27th

 

Two dynamic voices have combined their talents and are coming to Montréal for two nights at Jello Martini Lounge, on August 26th and 27th. SoDisrespectful is the latest project from Toni Menage and gold and platinum selling artist Monifah. This high-energy duo, straight from New York City, will definitely put their own spin on neo-soul favorites and funk classics as well as top 40 hits and R&B tracks.

A regular at many of New York City’s hotspots like The Groove and The Village Underground, Toni Menage sang backing vocals for Columbia recording artist Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam, Jade and Jimmy Cozier. She has performed on Soul Train, The Rhythm and Blues Awards, American Music Awards, and the Arsenio Hall Show (just to name a few).

Her partner is no stranger either; R&B singer-songwriter and recording artist Monifah released both her debut album, Moods…Moments in 1996 and her sophomore album, 1998’s Mahogany, on Uptown Records, which she followed in 2000 with Home on Universal. Her fourth album, MidNite, is due later this year.

As SoDisrespectful , their voices will be accompanied by a three-piece rhythm section. The shows will feature two sets of original material, which include tracks "Window," and "Invincible", mixed with select classic covers. For both shows at Jello Martini Lounge, Monifah’s new single "Sweat," and The Menage Live EP will be available for purchase. Showtime is 10pm on August 26th, and 11pm on August 27th. Tickets are 8$ at the door.
