Accomplished singer/songwriter and master guitarist John Emil has performed across the U.S. and UK, equally adept with the acoustic Hawaiian lap steel guitar and Dobro. Fans hear haunting, subtle hints of Delta bluesmen Son House and Blind Willie Johnson, but Emil creates a unique style by integrating country blues, folk, and bluegrass sounds into his repertoire.

This soul singer and ‘musical medicine woman’ duo uses their voices to promote love, healing, and transformation through music.

Message is not your typical concert series. It is an oasis where local artists find their voice and share their stories. Here, music transcends mere entertainment–it becomes personal. Local talent takes center stage. These are the musicians who play at the neighborhood cafes, scribble lyrics on napkins, and dream big. They’re not chasing fame, they’re chasing connection. From soulful ballads to introspective rap, their performances resonate with authenticity. Every Message event is unrepeatable, no two shows are alike; each carries a unique message. The audience sits close enough to see the artist’s fingertips on the strings and feel the raw emotion in every lyric. This is an event for anyone seeking refuge from the noise, who craves more than a passive concert experience.

Renowned saxophonist Kevin Levi has performed across the U.S. and worldwide for decades, honing his melodic, signature sound. He has appeared alongside luminaries including Wynton Marsalis, Lionel Hampton, Marcus Miller, and Ashanti. His debut solo project, ATONE, is a rich tapestry of original, rhythmically rooted hip hop, R&B, neo-soul, and ballads.
