The “Biographical Encyclopedia of Jazz” lists Stephanie Nakasian as one of the world’s leading jazz singers. Stephanie will be offering wonderful vocal tributes to June Christy for a little icing on Kenton’s cake.
Jazz Guitar Extraordinaire
Mike Stern, Guitarist
Whether with Miles Davis, Michael Brecker, Blood, Sweat & Tears, or the Yellowjackets, Mike Stern has always rocked the jazz world. In 2009, Stern was named during Downbeat’s 75th Anniversary as one of the best 75 guitarists ever. Add Stern to the mighty JazzMN band, and we’ll have an extraordinary night to remember.
Sizzling T-bone Entrée
Andy Martin, trombonist
As LA’s top-call jazz trombonist, Andy plays with the bands of Gordon Goodwin, Bill Holman, and Tom Kubis. His music is heard from TV’s Dancing with the Stars and American Idol to movies like Mission Impossible and The Lion King. Andy takes a night off from the City of Angels to let loose with JazzMN. We’ll set the table for a T-bone like you’ve never experienced for our season finale.
