Sickle cell disease is a rare inherited blood disease causing red blood cells to take a sickle shape, which leads to blockages that prevent blood from reaching parts of the body. As a result, people with sickle cell complications can experience anemia, jaundice, gallstones, stroke, chronic pain, organ damage and premature death. More than 100,000 Americans live with sickle cell disease, and 2 million Americans have sickle cell trait. No universal cure exists.

Sickle Cell Disease Association of America Inc. advocates for people affected by sickle cell conditions and empowers community-based organizations to maximize quality of life and raise public consciousness while advancing the search for a universal cure. The association and more than 55 member organizations support sickle cell research, public and professional health education and patient and community services. (www.sicklecelldisease.org)

SHOWTIMES: 7:30P AND 9:30P. Tall, charismatic and soulful Cole Downing’s nomadic approach to life has led to exciting roles from performer to actor to stunt double, but there’s none he loves ore than being around music and musicians.

Cole says, “My approach to music is deeply soulful. It moves and motivates me more than almost anything else in life. Music is what carries me through both the highs and the lows—it’s a constant companion.

I believe music is inherently communal. There’s a unique connection that happens through sound—it’s a conversation without words, a shared emotional experience that transcends language.

I’m drawn to songs that may not be heard on the radio every day—hidden gems like Hard Times and Losing Hand by Ray Charles, or Worried Life Blues by Chuck Berry, all of which I will perform in my show. I aim to breathe new life into these lesser-known works, introducing them to new audiences in a way that feels both familiar and fresh.

Through my music, I hope to create moments of recognition, healing, and joy—something true to the spirit of the blues and soul traditions I carry forward.”

Join us for a very special evening with Cole and his band!

Sep 5, 2025, 7:30pm to 9:00pm Timezone: EDT
