a track, and in some cases with limited instrumentation, such as a guitar or keyboard. No bands are allowed due to space constraints
and more complicated set-ups. Each week, a variety of the entertainment industry's top executives and celebrities are
on hand to hear the contestants. The judges aren't just celebrities - they are real players in the industry who have launched
careers and made their mark. Celebrity performers and guests have included - Calvin Richardson, Jazze Pha, Jagged Edge,
Lil G (Silk), Dave Tolliver (Men At Large), Sam Salter, Tony Terry, Bella (Warner Bros), Nephu (Capitol), Sterling (One Recordings/Def
Jam), C-Side, Missippi, Final Draft, among others. Café 290 sits in the heart of Sandy Springs (just outside
of Buckhead) and is THE spot to hear live jazz and R&B. Celebrities head to Café 290 when they are in the area
for great libations, food and the best music in town. This IS THE hot spot for the grown and sexy! Call 404.256.3942 for directions.
