This month we’ll be featuring another Detroit Treasure, and our first instrumentalist, Gayelynn Mckinney . Gayelynn is the drummer for the all gurl jazz band, Straight Ahead, and she has her own band called Gayelynn Mckinney & The McKinney Zone. Gayelynn and her band have recently released her first solo CD.

SCOTL features another sista who is coloring outside of the lines, Spoken word artist, Detroit’s Own, Kalimah Johnson.
GaBrilla discovered a love and passion for music and the stage at a very age. Grand-daughter of a jazz musician and a preacher, it is no surprise that even at five feet, four and a half inches and one-hundred and fourteen pounds, she commands attention and admiration with her performances.
