Middle C Jazz partners to bring jazz legend to new Carolina Theatre
JONATHAN BUTLER
Performance: Friday August 1st
Middle C Jazz has built a relationship with the incredible Jonathan Butler over several years, welcoming him to perform at the club annually for several years in a row. Partnering with Carolina Theatre and Jazz n’ Soul Music, we are excited to introduce Jonathan as the first jazz act to hit the brand-new Carolina Theatre stage.
Jonathan Butler’s music is a soulful fusion of R&B, jazz, and gospel, characterized by his smooth guitar melodies and uplifting vocals. He masterfully weaves in elements of his South African heritage, creating a unique sound that’s both deeply personal and universally inspiring. While offering an exceptional experience in the intimacy of Middle C Jazz, he is also the perfect musician to showcase the opulence and historic depth of the renovated theater space in Uptown Charlotte.
The Carolina Theatre is a breathtaking new venue in the heart of Uptown Charlotte. Originally designed to reflect the majesty of a Mediterranean palace, this 1927 landmark has been meticulously revitalized, blending timeless elegance with state-of-the-art technology. Visit the website for more about the theater.
Jonathan Butler will be joined by opening act Toni Tupponce, featuring A Sign of the Times. A Sign of the Times is a Charlotte-based nonprofit exploring Black history through performing arts. Toni Tupponce, lead vocalist and Program Director, is a respected and sought-after stylist in the Charlotte region whose dream is to bring her music and her community organizing work together.
