PORTSMOUTH, N.H., May 26, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Jimmy’s Jazz & Blues Club Features 4x-GRAMMY® Award Nominee, Blues & Rock and Roll Hall of Famer & 5x-Blues Music Award-Winning Guitarist, Singer & Songwriter ELVIN BISHOP and his BIG FUN TRIO on Friday June 10 at 7:30 P.M.

Elvin Bishop first hit the scene with the Paul Butterfield Blues Band in 1965, and ever since he’s blazed his own musical trail. Whether he was playing raw, eye-popping blues, or penning the evergreen radio hit “Fooled Around And Fell In Love”, or touring the world for decades delivering his original, good-time countrified blues, Bishop has always inspired his fans.

In 2015, Bishop formed The Big Fun Trio with his friends Bob Welsh (Piano, Guitar) and Willy Jordan (Vocals, Drums) and their first self-titled album in 2017 earned them a GRAMMY® Award Nomination for “Best Traditional Blues Album” and won 2 Blues Music Awards for “Album of the Year” and “Song of the Year.”

“Rousing, down-home, feel-good music…Bishop is a superb guitarist of great strength and skill…a rockin good time,” raves GUITAR WORLD.”A legendary guitarist whose playing is impeccable and spirited…a distinguished American player,” says ROLLING STONE.”Good time music guaranteed to put a smile on your face,” remarks CHICAGO TRIBUNE.

In 2018, Elvin Bishop & Big Fun Trio earned another GRAMMY® Award Nomination for “Best Traditional Blues Album” for their album entitled ”Something Smells Funky ‘Round Here.’ According to San Francisco Bay native Willy Jordan, who has decades of experience playing drums with artists including John Lee Hooker and Joe Louis Walker, playing in the Big Fun Trio is “crazy different. It’s rootsy but also new. We all stayed simple to stay strong.”

Bob Welsh, originally from Covington, Louisiana, has performed and toured with Bishop, Rusty Zinn, Charlie Musselwhite, Billy Boy Arnold, James Cotton and others. Welsh says he too loves playing in the Trio. “Playing this music is fun and fresh and new to us. It keeps us on our toes. We’re always surprising each other. We have to be fearless.”

Born in Glendale, CA on October 21, 1942, Elvin Bishop grew up on a farm in Iowa before relocating to Oklahoma when he was ten. He first got hooked on the blues listening to late night R&B radio as a teenager, and began collecting, listening to and absorbing blues music. Bishop used his 1959 National Merit Scholarship as a way to get closer to his blues heroes by enrolling in the University of Chicago.

After Bishop crossed paths with harmonica player and fellow University of Chicago student Paul Butterfield, the two began sitting in together at South Side clubs, often jamming with Buddy Guy and Otis Rush. They first formed The Paul Butterfield Blues Band in 1963, adding Jerome Arnold on bass, Sam Lay on drums and later Mark Naftalin on keyboards. Prior to cutting their debut LP in 1965, Michael Bloomfield joined the group as second lead guitarist, creating a groundbreaking, all-star band.

The self-titled The Paul Butterfield Blues Band introduced electric Chicago blues to the rock audience for the first time. With the release of “East-West” in 1966, the band’s popularity hit an all-time high. Their straight Chicago blues sounds drifted further into progressive and experimental rock ‘n’ roll and—with two world-class lead guitarists on board—the band helped pave the way for groups featuring multiple virtuoso guitarists, like The Allman Brothers Band and Derek and the Dominos. The band, including Bishop, was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame in 2015.

“We are thrilled to have the incredible bluesman Elvin Bishop on June 10 to serenade Portsmouth with his two-time GRAMMY® Award Nominated Big Fun Trio!'” says Suzanne Bresette, Managing Director of Programming at Jimmy’s Jazz & Blues Club.

Tickets for 4x-GRAMMY® Award Nominee, Blues & Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Famer & 5x-Blues Music Award-Winning Guitarist, Singer-Songwriter ELVIN BISHOP on Friday June 10 at 7:30 P.M. are available on the Jimmy’s Jazz & Blues Club Elvin Bishop Event Page.

Lakshmi Finance Center: Jonathan Dale Benton Unveils the Strategic Leap from TradeGenius AI 3.0 to 4.0

Published

on

By

Lakshmi Finance Center announces the next generation of its flagship AI platform, TradeGenius AI 4.0, showcasing advanced learning capabilities, re-engineered infrastructure, and cross-domain scalability under the direction of founder Jonathan Dale Benton.

SAN DIEGO, April 10, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Lakshmi Finance Center has officially launched TradeGenius AI 4.0, the most significant architectural and functional overhaul of its intelligent automation platform to date. Building on the foundational framework of version 3.0, the new system introduces a series of transformative upgrades designed to meet the demands of increasingly complex and dynamic real-time environments.

The development, led by Founder and CEO Jonathan Dale Benton, reflects the institution’s ongoing investment in modular artificial intelligence systems that prioritize learning adaptability, high-volume data responsiveness, and operational transparency.

“TradeGenius AI 4.0 is not simply a version update—it’s a complete strategic reinvention of the system’s intelligence core,” said Jonathan Dale Benton. “It now thinks in contexts, adapts in cycles, and learns in real time across environments that no static model could survive.”

While TradeGenius AI 3.0 introduced essential advancements such as adaptive learning databases and preliminary decision feedback loops, version 4.0 redefines those foundations by integrating reinforcement learning, temporal abstraction layers, and dynamic task routing engines. These upgrades allow the system to execute multi-stage, variable-output strategies across non-linear data streams—an essential feature for modern AI operations.

One of the key innovations in 4.0 is its event-driven processing model, which replaces sequential logic chains with flexible response modules. This model enables the system to react to new inputs based on weighted probabilities rather than fixed triggers, dramatically reducing latency and enhancing situational awareness.

In parallel, the platform now supports natural language command interpretation through an upgraded NLP parser, allowing users to construct complex operational logic using simple language prompts. These are dynamically translated into structured tasks, enabling broader accessibility across non-technical roles in systems management and automation testing.

The memory module—a critical improvement over 3.0’s short-term feedback structure—has been expanded into a context-aware temporal buffer. This allows TradeGenius AI 4.0 to maintain variable-length memory trails for long-form decision-making, improving continuity in strategy across extended sessions.

Another core advancement is the scalability architecture, which now supports simultaneous deployment across decentralized nodes with real-time synchronization. This enables federated learning experiments and distributed intelligence deployment in simulated or live multi-agent environments.

The engineering teams behind TradeGenius AI worked through 14 months of sprint-based iterations and regression testing to ensure that legacy logic sets could be retained while accommodating the system’s expanded capabilities. Cross-disciplinary contributions from Lakshmi’s internal data scientists, systems theorists, and interface designers ensured a consistent balance between depth, speed, and usability.

In preparation for broader use, Lakshmi Finance Center is releasing a developer sandbox environment for institutions and research labs, including access to API layers, custom training modules, and anonymized datasets for testing. Internal pilot programs have already demonstrated successful applications in automation orchestration, real-time analytics, and process modeling.

Looking ahead, Lakshmi Finance Center plans to integrate real-world knowledge graph structures and symbolic reasoning systems in future iterations of the TradeGenius framework. Version 4.1, currently in prototype, is expected to introduce explainability modules and internal audit trails for transparency in critical system decisions.

TradeGenius AI 4.0 is now available for enterprise deployment, research collaboration, and curriculum integration within Lakshmi’s technical education programs.

With this release, Lakshmi Finance Center not only extends the capabilities of intelligent systems but reinforces its role as a center for continuous innovation in scalable, modular, and explainable AI.
