    This Monday, Modern Groove Assembly (MGA) will be appearing at the always
    hip Temple Bar in Santa Monica with a very special guest, vocalist Sy
    Smith!!!

    Sy has credits for days, but here are some of the main points: she is from
    the Washington DC area, and attended Howard U. As a background vocalist, she
    has worked with the queen of divas, Whitney Houston, not to mention Res and
    Macy Gray. She is currently on tour with Meshelle Ndegeocello.

    As a solo artist, she released the album "Psykosoul" on Hollywood records, a
    criticially acclaimed effort with production help from the likes of Ali
    Shaheed Muhammed (Tribe Called Quest...)

    She is also the featured lead vocalist on The Brand New Heavies latest
    album, ("We Won't Stop") and she writes and performs with her own bomb vocal
    trio, Star 69 (w. cohorts Dawn Belgrave and Stephanie Alexander...) She has
    also done alot of acting, voice overs, was featured in a Gap TV campaign,
    plays keys, has lyrics for days, and is generally recognized as the world's
    all around coolest woman!!!

    Sy's going to be performing with MGA this Monday for anyone 21 and over.
    We'll be doing some MGA originals and some Sy Smith originals! The cost is
    only $5 (5 dollars?!?) and the show starts around 10 pm
