“Seatown brings the funk to Concerts on the Green July 24, 2012 By Staff The Seatown Rhythm and Blues Players funks up the stage with Motown and R&B classics during this summer’s Concerts on the Green series July 31 at the Issaquah Community Center. Picnicking kicks off at 6 p.m., so be sure to bring a blanket. The music fills the air from 7-8:30 p.m. As many as 500 revelers attend, so be sure to come early to stake out your spot. Seatown Rhythm and Blues Players fan Jeff, from Milwaukee, wrote on the band’s website, “Got a chance to see Seatown in Issaquah. These guys flat out play everything. Simply one of the best Motown cover bands I’ve ever seen. If you like classic Motown and funk, you will not be disappointed.” The concert series, now in its 15th year, is at 301 Rainier Blvd. and is presented by Issaquah’s Parks & Recreation Department and the Issaquah Arts Commission, in collaboration with the Kiwanis Club of Issaquah.”

“Ms. Renee and veteran producer JAYAR, who is known for his work with Chaka Khan, George Benson and McFadden & Whitehead and, despite his R&B leanings, took the tracks on the album and made them shine like polished silver while preserving the songs' urgency and passion. ”

— Kas Kawasaki, LILLITH'S CHILD MAGAZINE

“From the COURIER NEWS, 6/29/00, reviewing ROBIN RENEE, IN PROGRESS, JAYAR, PRODUCER: Her great songs are made even better by...the production of Philadelphia-based studio whiz JAYAR, who has worked with Chaka Khan and George Benson.”

— COURIER NEWS

“From Jazzitude Magazine: CINTRON Back In the Day Camjam Records In My Heart features Chicago native Naked Soul member JAYAR as the top layer on some incredible vocal harmonies. ”

— JAZZITUDE MAGAZINE

“ ABSOLUTELY! Edgardo Cintron Camjam Grade: B But Cintron takes the group in a soul direction with the sweet harmonies of "In My Heart," on which the high register of South Philly vocalist-producer-arranger Jayar shines like EWF's Philip Bailey. -- Karl Stark The Philadelphia Inquirer ”
