1.         CARL HENRY CD RELEASE PARTY – MAY 17, 2002 - THE AFFAIR AT REVIVAL

You’ve heard his tracks “One Night Stand”, “Sex U” and “Gimme Love” on FLOW 93.5 in the past few weeks.  You’ve heard his name before – somewhere.  Langfield Entertainment teams up with Major Entertainment for the May version of The Affair – the Carl Henry CD Release Party on Friday, May 17th - the LONG weekend!   Kick off the long weekend with a live R&B showcase that you can’t miss.  Check out Carl Henry’s site - with pics, tracks and videos - www.carlhenryrnb.com or click on top picture of Carl.    You definitely need to check this site out!  I was an immediate fan!  His tracks are hot and his videos hotter!  I am thrilled to be involved in helping to showcase this artist’s work and to work with
Carl Henry’s label, CeSoul. 

Carl is a fluently bilingual (French and English) R&B artist from Montreal (Jamaican born) who is capturing not only North America’s R&B fans but has received much love from FRANCE – where he will be releasing a full French album the same time as his English one is released in Canada – May 21st! 
Like many of today's chart-toppers, Carl B. Henry established his musical roots in the church.  He has received many accolades already as this project has been in the works since 1997.  He has performed internationally with some of urban music's hottest stars including Mary J. Blige, Next, 112, TLC, Eric Benet and Lucy Pearl.

And Toronto is privileged to host Carl Henry’s CD RELEASE on MAY 17TH at The Affair inside Revival - Toronto’s hottest venue!  Buy your tickets NOW to secure your place for this very special night.  People are already asking how to get tickets!   Great giveaways too!   As always, you can purchase tickets from me.
