Monthly Membership Meeting

Wednesday, July 15th  2009, 8:00 - 11:00

 Nanette De Laune Quartet!

Upstairs at The Downtown
10 West Front Street, Red Bank, New Jersey 07701 ~ MAP

Check out the Monthy Membership Page!

The Nanette De Laune Quartet is an elegant ensemble renowed for their excellence in the intimate "super club jazz" style that was popularized during the early 1940's and 50's. Nanette's love of the American Standard songbook has set her apart as a singer of distinction with peer respect. Her greatest strength lies in her innate ability to connect with her material and communicate that intimacy with the listener. It helps that Nanette is solidly assompanied by three like-minded musicians. Jim De Salvo on piano, Brian Connell on double Bass, and John P. Allen on drums.
