Jazz on the JNote Airs this Sunday, September 11th, 2022 at 7:30Pm on WNYE 91.5FM with your host Stephanie Jeannot

I will never forget that sad day in 2001 when chaos took over New York City.

 

I just sat at my desk sipping on my Venti cup filled with dark roast coffee. It was not shortly after the freshness of it got me all jittered up for the day ahead of me that I heard the news of a plane crashing into the first of the Twin Towers.

I was in my office building in mid-town and everybody ascended to the top floor of the building so that they could see from the windows what was going on. The sites I saw that day, I hope to never see again.

It was like a movie and so unreal. Who would have thought something like this could have been happening right before our eyes.  And the craziest part about it all is that it happened 21 years ago and it is still very fresh in my mind like it was yesterday, when my friends and I walked along the thoroughfares of Manhattan, over the Williamsburg Bridge to Brooklyn; I still remember seeing burnt paper from the World Trade Center showering over the streets of Flatbush as I approached the comfort of home and the quietness that took over the city that never sleeps thereafter.



Twenty-One years later, we remember the tragedy, the lives lost, the beautiful skyline, the shopping center that was in the building, and just all the things that was pre-9/11. I want to encapsulate the memory of these very things in this Sunday’s episode of my radio show Jazz on the JNote which will air Sunday, September 11, 2022 from 7:30PM to 8PM, as part of the Medgar Ever’s College Community Radio Stream over the airwaves of  WNYE 91.5 FM, hosted by show host & producer Stephanie Jeannot.  

The show traditionally plays jazz and has commentaries throughout the show that relate the songs to the topic at hand. This week in particular is to celebrate the lives lost on the tragic day back in 2001. Hope that you will join us this Sunday at 7:30PM on WNYE 91.5 FM for Jazz on the JNote with your host Stephanie Jeannot.

Until then, Peace!

Songwriter Wednesday: "Time Machine"

Have you ever wished that you had a time machine to be wherever you wanted to be in the blink of an eye?




No more 80-mile drives to a far distant place just to get into the things that your heart says yes to but your energy says, maybe another time. Instead, you could just climb into a contraption, press a few buttons, and boom, you are there.

You wouldn’t have to rely on airlines and hope that their staff doesn’t all get sick that day. You do not have to sit in rush hour traffic hoping that whatever mess is before you on the journey home will clear up. No more wishing to go back in time to revisit a person or to relive a moment. You could just climb into the time machine and Bam.  

That is what I was thinking about when I wrote the song “Time Machine.” After a long work week, I want to be like the road runner and zoom home in a flash. I wish I had a “Time Machine” to be where I want to be and to do what I want to do when I want to do it.

If you could relate to any of this, please check out my song “Time Machine.”

Lyrics and vocals by Stephanie Jeannot

Music by Mike LeShore

Wish I Had a "Time Machine" by Stephanie Jeannot & Mike LeShore

Sometimes I wish I had a time machine at my disposal for so many different reasons. How about you?If so and you can relate then, add the full-length version ...

Poettues: Lake Street Station

Poettues 


Lake Street Station
by Stephanie Jeannot



Weekday vibes in the midst of the rush

Through the CTA Station, music sprinkling down on us


A guy spitting bars on the crowded platform

Over an ocean wave of bass thumps satiating the core


You could hear the refreshing sound of the buskers blazing

I pulled my phone out to take a cameo of their sound exchanging


I caught the fever and all I wanted to do was sing along with them

And so, while the rapper spat, I hummed and started ad-libbing


We vibed until the El came chugging into the station

I almost didn’t want to board because I was really feeling ‘em


It was a scene that reminded me of NYC, making me feel like I was home

Something else to add to the love of Chicago, from these experiences that I own

__________________________________________________________________________________


The poem was based on my explorations of Chicago via the CTA; perfect for Poetry Tuesday. 

Every time I am in Chicago, riding the El is on my bucket list of things I want to do
and so, I do it and I always end up seeing something else that fascinates my eyes.

Also, while here on my downtime, I am experimenting using various apps to complete short video editing projects.

What's Happening with JNote Music

 

This year seems to be speeding by with excessive speed.

 


It feels almost as if it were yesterday that the ball dropped into 2022 and we brought in the new year with screams of joy and hopes for a different season than the pandemic one that interrupted our flowing lives in so many different ways. But I am looking forward to the second half of the year that is about to embrace us with hopes that it will bring about much better times in all areas of our lives.

 

News

 

I have been in the studio working on new music and I looking forward to releasing brand new songs that I cannot wait for you to hear. I wrote about 90% of the songs and then I partnered with a few other amazing musicians who have contributed a great deal to who I am as a musician, singer and songwriter. 

My new music will definitely tell you a little bit more about who I am. So stay tuned.


In the midst of the new music that is about to be released, I will also join bassist and songwriting
partner, John Mueller for our second Midwest tour this summer and we will be doing it live and in style at various places such as the Magnus Music Festival in Dayton, MN on August 20th and the Rock Island Labor Day Parade on September 5th. 

Other locations where we will play will be announced soon just in case you will be in the Midwest and are interested in coming.
