CHELLE! & FRIENDS + Gumbo by Urban Catering

Celebrate New CHELLE! AND FRIENDS

Celebrate New Orleans!

Ask 20 people how to define the music of New Orleans and you’ll get 30 answers. It could be Jazz, Funk, Soul, Cajun, Creole, Gospel, Caribbean, African, Zydeco, Rock or the chants and stirring rhythms of Mardi Gras Indians. New Orleans native, Michelle Jacques along some “very special friends” take all of these influences and a few more, and stir it into this stewpot of musical gumbo that is sweet, spicy, aromatic and definitely intoxicating. CHELLE! and Friends is made up of some of the most distinguished and accomplished musicians in the San Francisco Bay Area. CHELLE! And Friends perform music that is vibrant and alive with the driving voices of artistic director and founder Michelle Jacques, Rhonda Crane, Jay Lamont and Bryan Dyer, Donna Viscuso on woodwinds, Eric Swinderman on guitar, and Sam Bevan on bass and Bob Scott on drums.

Also featured this night, get a taste of some homemade New Orleans gumbo and cornbread made by our favorite chef, Stephanie Dalton of Urban Catering and Events (www.urbancateringandevents.com)
