Janet Planet

  Janet Planet

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.
