    .. .. .. .. ........ I have a hard time writting a professional sounding bio like all the other musicians have. It makes me feel like I'm being arrogant. .... And not just arrogantly bragging, but arrogantly bragging in the ..3rd person... .. This is going to be akward and wrong...but i'll give it a shot. This might be embarassing. I guess we'll see. ........ Jasmine Logan is a talented and charasmatic saxophonist with a lively upbeat attitude and a demanding stage presence to match. .... Jasmine first started playing when she was nine years old. Her first instrument was a used bundy student line clarinet that was almost a decade older that she was. ..In the 10th grade Jasmine's band director asked her to learn alto saxophone. After a few about 12 weeks of practice she was placed as first chair alto saxophone in the jazz band. Jasmine continued to study classical clarinet under Christy Domico, and studied jazz saxophone on her own. .... At age 16 Jasmine joined the praise and worship band at her church, where they only hire professional musicians. She played for free, but it was worth it to be able to work with some of the best up and coming gospel musicians such as Pennal Johnson, Charles Laster, and Felton Offard among others... Playing with the church band also gave her the opportunity to perform with gospel recording artists, DeLeon, Joyce Hurley and Desmond Pringle just to name a few. .... At age 17 Jasmine was inspired by Frank Catalano, a grammy nominated jazz saxophonist and alumi of her highschool, to study saxophone at the college level. .. Jasmine earned a number of music awards in her highschool career such as the Louis Armstrong Award, the John Phillip Sousa Award and the the Semper Fidelis Music Award fromt the US Marines. She also earned a number of gold medal from the State Solo and Ensemble competition. She went on to study Saxophone Performance in the Studio of Dr. Randall Smith, and Music Education on full tuition academic and music scholarships at Truman State University. .. She proved to be quite a versatile musician, playing clarinet and saxophone in 5 major ensembles in her first year, which was unusual for any student, especially an underclassmen. .. Now she plays with the Saxtelles, fronted by blues guitarist Steve Arvey who said, .." I have a girl in my band named Jasmine Logan... She is very bright and her music education will take her many places in life" (Big City Blues Magazine sept. 2006).... She also plays with the 4-Fifths jazz quartet .. Jasmine takes every opportunity to try to learn from every musician she comes in contact with. Aside from honing her craft, she is also learning as much as she can about the music industry by interning with Haywire booking agency, working on the church sound crew, arranging and doing studio work. .... and now Jasmine is sick of typing about herself in the 3rd person. so she's going to put a video clip here to distract you... .......... .. .... I edited my profile with ..Thomas Myspace Editor V3.6..! .... ...... I'm always looking for work, so if anyone needs a sax player that can double on just about any other woodwind, then I'm your girl! ........You have been marked on my profile map!

    Live a LIFE OF KINDNESS Jasmine!

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE POWER OF A TOUCH ...

    "Too often we UNDERESTIMATE the power of a TOUCH,

    a SMILE, a KIND WORD, a LISTENING EAR, an HONEST

    COMPLIMENT, or the SMALLEST ACT OF CARING,

    all of which have the potential to TURN A LIFE AROUND."

    ~ Leo Buscaglia

    Happy New Year Jasmine!

     

     TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT ADVICE FOR 2012 ...

    "Let this coming year be BETTER than all the others. Vow to do some of the things you've ALWAYS WANTED TO DO but couldn't find the time.

    > Call up a forgotten friend.

    > Drop an old grudge, and replace it with some pleasant memories.

    > Vow not to make a promise you don't think you can keep.

    > Walk tall, and smile more. You'll look 10 years younger.

    > Don't be afraid to say, "I LOVE YOU". Say it again. They are the SWEETEST WORDS in the world."

     ~ Ann Landers

    TODAY, JANUARY 1, 2012 IS THE FIRST DAY OF THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!  MAKE IT A GREAT DAY!

    Do YOU believe in Santa?

     

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS FROM "Yes Virginia There Is a Santa Claus" ...

    Virginia O'Hanlon, an 8 year old girl, asked "Is there a Santa Claus?"

    Francis Pharcellus Church famously answered in 1897 in his editiorial in the New York Sun.

    "Yes, Virginia, there is a SANTA CLAUS. He exists as certainly as LOVE and GENEROSITY and DEVOTION exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its HIGHEST BEAUTY AND JOY.

    ... Thank God! he lives, and he lives forever. A thousand years from now, Virginia, nay, ten times ten thousand years from now, he will continue TO MAKE GLAD THE HEART OF CHILDHOOD."

    PEACE ON EARTH WILL COME TO STAY WHEN WE LIVE CHRISTMAS EVERY DAY!

    MY NEW CD "LOVE'S SWEET SONG" HAS JUST BEEN RELEASED AND IS AVAILABLE @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com
     

    Showing you LOTS OF LOVE Jasmine!

    THE THOUGHT FOR TODAY IS CALLED "JUST FOR TODAY"...

    "I will live through the next 24 hours and try not to tackle ALL OF LIFE'S PROBLEMS AT ONCE.

    I will be AGREEABLE.  I will look my best, speak in a well modulated voice, and be COURTEOUS and CONSIDERATE.

    I will not FIND FAULT with a friend, relative or colleague. I will not try to change or improve anyone but myself.

    I will DO A GOOD TURN and KEEP IT A SECRET. If anyone finds out, it will not count.

    I will do TWO THINGS I DON'T WANT to do, just for the exercise.

    I will BELIEVE IN MYSELF. I will GIVE MY BEST to the world and FEEL CONFIDENT that the world WILL GIVE ITS BEST TO ME."

    Your friend,

    Richard

and now Jasmine is sick of typing about herself in the 3rd person. so she's going to put a video clip here to distract you...

I'm always looking for work, so if anyone needs a sax player that can double on just about any other woodwind, then I'm your girl!
