June is Black Music Month - created in 1979 by President Jimmy Carter to celebrate African-American contributions in music.
Here in Chattanooga, the Velvet Chair Experience - a concert series fusing jazz and uptown soul - premiered last month at the Bessie Smith Cultural Center, where the next concert will be held on Sunday, June 25th starting at 6 PM.
Vocalist Karen Collins is hosting and performing in the series - along with bass player Dexter Bell.
