No Tears Project is a jazz-inflected collective whose repertoire is inspired by civil rights history and themes of social equality. Join us for this special concert celebrating the release of their newest record, Humanitics, out February 25, 2025 from Mahakala Music. Led by vocalist-songwriter Kelley Hurt and pianist-composer Christopher Parker, No Tears Project strives to create recognition as a precursor to reconciliation. Joining Parker and Hurt for the performance will be Rodney Jordan (bass), Darrian Douglas (drums), Bobby LaVell (tenor sax), Marc Franklin (trumpet), Chad Fowler (alto sax), and special guests spoken word artist and author Treasure Shields Redmond, plus choreographer/researcher, Ashley Tate. Humanitics features 8 tracks, including a suite of 5 new songs written by jazz luminary and Arkansas-born composer Oliver Lake (World Saxophone Quartet; Black Artist Group).
This project is supported in part by a grant from the Arkansas Humanities Council, the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Arkansas Arts Council.
