René Marie
Jazz at Lincoln Center
With vocalist René Marie, pianist John Chin, bassist Elias Bailey, and drummer Quentin E. Baxter
Blessed with a crystal clear voice, fierce originality, and a commanding stage presence, René Marie is a musical force of nature and a provocative risk-taker. Marie’s repertoire is nicely varied, with a welcome emphasis on her incisive original compositions. For her return to Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola, Marie will bring her regular, Grammy Award-nominated rhythm section of pianist John Chin, bassist Elias Bailey, and drummer Quentin Baxter, Jr. Check them out on NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert for a small taste of what the group has to offer: youtube.com/watch?v=XnNCJI_LUhg
