René Marie will be on JazzSet with Dee Dee Bridgewater during the week of September 29th. This program is on 100 radio stations worldwide and will act as a "warm-up" for her co-hosting the National NPR broadcast on 165 stations on New Years Eve. The program will be a broadcast of a performance earlier this year at Kennedy Center.

René Marie is taking the jazz world by storm. Critical acclaim is being heaped on her by some heavy hitters in the industry with Larry Applebaum, Jazz Times raving "She owns the stage in a way we haven't seen since Betty Carter." Producer Brian Bacchus notes "Standing ovations in a club are rare....closing in on Betty Carter territory....songwriting reminiscent of Nina Simone...you should FLY to see her..."

Charles Lloyd Trio
featuring Zakir Hussain and Eric Harland.
Lloyd and Hussain first performed together in a sold out November 2001 concert at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco. This concert made it clear that music is about building bridges between cultures, not destroying them.

Although Lloyd was born in Memphis, Tennessee and Hussain is from Bombay, India — each has been a world citizen for decades. They each have the capacity to produce formidable expressive range on their respective instruments, and each has worked a rather intergalactic range of musicians, as well.

Joined by Eric Harland, (who replaced Billy Higgins in Lloyd’s quartet) A unique, intensely expressive and creative trio was formed. In November 2004, this remarkable trio gave a series of concerts in Europe that were sold out and left the audience asking for more. Their concerts bring a unique opportunity to hear them draw from their voluminous experience in the jazz and Indian classical traditions, as well as other world musics.
