A standout track from the smooth jazz album Groove Like This, Stix Bones’s “Cruisin’ in the Sunset” is a soulful blend of jazz, funk, and R&B. Its laid-back tempo, warm keyboard undertones, and tasteful guitar melody perfectly evoke the serenity of an evening drive. The captivating instrumentation—rhythmic drums, silky melodies, and mellow harmonies—builds an atmosphere that is both relaxing and subtly energizing, showcasing Bones's talent for creating groove-rich, immersive music that feels both personal and universal.
In a different arena of community service, the Dr. Theodore A. Atlas Foundation is a New York-based 501(c)(3) organization providing critical financial and emotional support to those in need, with a special focus on children. Founded in 1997 by boxing trainer Teddy Atlas to honor his father, the Foundation continues the legacy of Dr. Atlas, who provided free medical care and made house calls into his 80s.
The Foundation steps in to help people in challenging situations who might otherwise fall through the cracks. Its significant endeavors include operating youth boxing gyms and education centers in Brooklyn and Staten Island, creating school incentive programs, and distributing turkeys and toys to families during the holidays. True to its founding spirit, the Foundation works in a profoundly human way that preserves the dignity of the thousands of individuals and families it has aided.
