(Los
Angeles – June 26, 2012) –
Grammy-winning saxophonist Kirk Whalum along with MantestedRecipes.com
and Real Men Cook have joined forces to encourage men to bring romance to the
table with their “Set The Mood Sweepstakes.” ManTestedRecipes.com, the fastest
growing social food site and Real Men Cook, a non-profit dedicated to serving
families in need have teamed up with Whalum launching a sweepstakes and the
chance to submit photos of romantic meals to the Man Tested Recipes Facebook
page (www.facebook.com/ManTestedRecipes).
Four
weekly winners will be picked at random and will receive a JAMBOX by Jawbone
wireless SmartSpeaker – the smallest, best-sounding wireless speaker on the
planet. Winners will also receive
Grammy-winning saxman Kirk Whalum’s
new album, Romance Language, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard
contemporary Jazz Chart.
The
critically acclaimed Romance Language is a re-working of the
classic 1963 album by the legendary John Coltrane and song stylist Johnny
Hartman. Whalum assumes the role of
Coltrane while his younger brother Kevin
fills the large footprints of Hartman.
In
addition to the six original songs from Coltrane/Hartman, Whalum meticulously rounds out the set with four contemporary
renderings, Heather Headley’s “I Wish I
Wasn’t,” Joe’s “I Wanna Know,”
Eric Benet and Tamia’s “Spend My Life
With You” and the standout “Almost
Doesn’t Count,” originally recorded by (then teen) Brandy and performed by Whalum’s 83 year old uncle Hugh “Peanut Whalum.”
