After opening for Bob James in Houston one night, Kirk Whalum was invited to New York by the pianist to appear on his album “12“. Bob James, in recalling that night, said, “He [Kirk Whalum] was opening for a concert I played in Houston. I was actually able to watch part of his show – unlike most of the time when I don’t get to hear the opening act. I just loved him.”

Kirk Whalum is also part of the all-star lineup on Warner Bros. Records “Casino Lights ’99”, featuring Bob James, Boney James, Mark Turner, Kenny Garrett, Larry Carlton, Fourplay, George Duke, Kevin Mahogany, Rick Braun and Gabriela Anders.

While his musical accomplishments have brought him professional and critical acclaim, with a total of seven Grammy nominations and one Stellar Award (Best Gospel Instrumental Album), it is his benevolent spirit and charitable efforts that truly define him.
