After being cast in the ‘90’s reboot of the Mickey Mouse Club (alongside Ryan Gosling, Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera), acting on sitcoms (Living Single, Martin) and landing a recurring role on The Jamie Foxx Show, the Chicago-born singer/actress signed with hitmaker Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins on his newly developed Darkchild Records.

(May 15, 2024) Since the time he had access to a record collection and a hunger for American roots music, Quinn DeVeaux was well on his way envisioning his artistic niche.  Besides experiencing a rock and R&B library at home and learning from a grandmother who performed jazz, it was blues masters like Muddy Waters that motivated the singer/songwriter/guitarist to hit the road to play in several cities.

Sanborn’s social media account posted notice of the sad news: “It is with sad and heavy hearts that we convey to you the loss of internationally renowned, six-time Grammy Award-winning, saxophonist, David Sanborn. Mr. Sanborn passed Sunday afternoon, May 12th, after an extended battle with prostate cancer with complications."

Happy birthday to legendary hitmaker, Janet Jackson, born May 16, 1966.
