Description
Internationally acclaimed trumpeter, vocalist, songwriter, and producer Johnny Britt is celebrating the release of his new single, You Are Beautiful, with the launch of a heartfelt global social media movement designed to spread affirmation, gratitude, and love.
Beginning April 29, in celebration of his birthday, Britt is inviting fans, artists, families, and communities everywhere to participate in a simple but powerful challenge: Finish the sentence: “You are beautiful because ______.”
Participants are encouraged to post a photo or short video honoring someone special in their lives—a parent, child, sibling, friend, mentor, spouse, or loved one—and share why that person is beautiful using the hashtag #YouAreBeautiful. Tributes can be shared on any social platform and paired with Britt's new single.
“I wanted to celebrate someone who changed my life forever—my daughter, Mariah,” says Britt. “I wrote You Are Beautiful because of her… and because of all the people in our lives who need to be reminded of who they are. I want people everywhere to tell someone they matter.”
Inspired by his daughter, the song carries a deeply personal message of self-worth, appreciation, and unconditional love—values Britt hopes to amplify through collective storytelling online. Now streaming everywhere, You Are Beautiful will debut in four distinct versions, allowing the song to connect across audiences and moods: Smooth Jazz, Smooth R&B, Dance Mix, and R&B Mix

The American dream came true for Catalina Popescu in October of 1986 when she and her husband Bob created a supper club devoted to serving an experience of superb eats and the shared magic of live performance. That grand experience began at the door where every night her mother Maria would greet each guest as family and share in their love of music. Housed in Hollywood and decked out in a timeless charm, the club offers a cozy ambience under sparkling stage lights garnished with its signature concoction — Jazz. The first artist to grace the stage was the masterful flutist and saxophonist Buddy Collette, and ever since then, over the past 36 years, the Catalina Jazz Club has hosted the most illustrious legends of all time — from the powerful puffers of Dizzy Gillespie to the electrified fingers of McCoy Tyner, the bubbly belt of Dee Dee Bridgewater and Lynda Carter, the flirtatious saxophone of Joshua Redman, the slick strumming of Kenny Burrell, the insane drum clinic of Steve Gadd, the romance of Steve Tyrell, and the masterclass of Mike Stern.
For Catalina, Jazz is our way of life. It breathes pain. It knows love. It dreams hope. It bleeds courage. Whether we’re showcasing Broadway, Soul, R&B, or stand-up comedy, the lesson learned from all the greats who have serenaded our spirits is how to connect to one another. And that’s why the Catalina Jazz Club will always have a table ready for you.
The Catalina Jazz Club has been honored by A.S.M.A.C., California Jazz Foundation, Los Angeles Jazz Society, and a City of Los Angeles Certificate of Appreciation on their 25th Anniversary, which was awarded by Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and the LA City Council which included then City Council member and current Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti.
