Jovino, Eduardo, Thomas Marriott, and Greg Williamson

Hi Music Lovers!

Thomas Marriott, the Seattle trumpeter whose making a name for himself nationally and, incidentally will also be on my new CD when it comes out has a gig with his brother and their Quintet:

The Marriott Brothers Quintet

will be performing on Sunday, July 10th at the New Orleans Creole Restaurant in historic Pioneer Square from 7:30-10:30pm.
This performance will reunite Thomas & David for the first time in Seattle in over a year.

Thomas is a Garfield High School Jazz Band Alumnus, who moved to New York City, where he cut his teeth performing with many well known jazz artists including THREE world tours with Maynard Ferguson's Big Band.
Let me tell you, he's got a Phat Trumpet Sound. Highly recommended.

And, the tireless Jovino is working together with the equally tireless Eduardo Mendonca to bring you some great Brazilian gigs:
