Janet Planet brings her
quintet and her enormous musical talent to the Fox Jazz Fest stage for
it's
finale of two days of great jazz. Joining her will be Tom Theabo, Tom
Washatka,
Matt Turner, John Gibson and Danny Lueck.
Janet's unbridaled energy for new ideas and directions will be
represented by
her performing selections from several of her recent projects,
including Of
Thee I Sing - Commemerating The Sites And Cities Of
America, Love
Letters From Carey Bluff - The
Music Of Chris Swansen, and The Bob Dylan Songbook.
Janet's exquisite
interpretations bring new life to treasures that long to
be heard again. -
Gene
Bertoncini : jazz
guitarist
Planet's voice is
stunning, singing each note as if nothing else mattered. -
Ike
Sturm : bassist and
composer
For
those who are not familiar with Janet Planet's music - her sheer
musicality, her joyful presentation and her delightful interpretation -
run,
don't walk to hear her wherever she performs. For those already hip I
need not
say more except that this area native personifies this year's Fox Jazz
Fest
theme for in-the-groove Home Cookin' at it's tastiest.
