Second Annual Manatee Jazz Fest April 9th-18th, 2010.
Bradenton, Florida
Celebrate the entire week!
Originally posted at www.jazzbluesflorida.com

The South Florida Museum, in affiliation with the Smithsonian Institution’s Jazz Appreciation Month, is spearheading the second annual Manatee Jazz Fest April 9th-18th, 2010. Plan to celebrate the entire week to enjoy distinctive settings and venues to celebrate this uniquely American art form. For instance, enjoy a Duke Ellington tribute performance at the Manatee Players Theater on Sunday, April 11th, dance the night away with Latin Jazz at the Cuban Cultural Celebration at the South Florida Museum on April 16th, or enjoy the day listening to the sound of jazz on both Manatee Jazz Fest Saturdays at the Downtown Bradenton Farmers’ Market with performances by Tom Barrett Dixieland Jazz on April 10th and the popular Jazzology Trio on April 17th.

Enjoy a small, one day taste of the celebration of Jazz music, culture and history during this county wide event, or arrange to indulge in an unforgettable week. Prices and times vary for all events. For instance, the Cuban Cultural Celebration is $20 in advance or $25 at the door and includes food and entertainment while afternoon concerts in the local historical parks are free.

Partnering organizations and Manatee Jazz Fest event venues include the South Florida Museum, Art Center Manatee, Manatee Players, Village of the Arts, Bradenton Downtown Development Authority, Manatee Village Historical Park, Palmetto Art Center, Palmetto Historical Park and others. Event calendars and more information are available at each of these locations beginning in March 2010.

South Florida Singer/Songwriter Rachel Brown at Jazz In The Gardens Music Festival
South Florida emerging singing sensation Rachel Brown is among the confirmed artist to appear on the 2010 Jazz In The Gardens Music Festival. Rachel, who is one of South Florida’s most notable up and coming recording artist, will present songs from her debut CD, “Love, Life & Relationships,” which spawned the Billboard charting hit “Let’s Fall In Love Again.”

A mainstay in the South Florida entertainment market for nearly a decade, Brown is now developing a national following, playing venues across the U.S. in cities such as New York, Chicago, St. Louis and Dallas. Brown has also been featured at SXSW (Austin), The Black Women’s Expo (Chicago), as well as opening for artists such as Mario, Tank Noel Gourdin, Chico Debarge, and 2009 “Jazz in the Gardens” headliners, Frankie Beverly & Maze.

Signed to Urban Music Group in 2007, RACHEL’s early notoriety came about due to the success of her debut single “Let’s Fall In Love Again,” which reached #1 on the Billboard R&B Single Sales Chart.

“Jazz in the Gardens,” now in its 5th year, takes place on Saturday, March 20th and Sunday, March 21th at Sun Life Stadium, (formerly Dolphin/Landshark Stadium) 2269 Dan Marino Blvd, Miami Gardens, Florida 33056.

The star-studded festival, hosted by radio personality Tom Joyner features headliners Mary J. Blige, John Legend, Teena Marie, Boyz To Men, Robin Thicke, Melanie Fiona and many more.

Jazz in the Gardens, a two-day weekend festival is now in its fifth year and has grown to be one of the top cultural events in America. Having something to offer all music aficionados at an affordable price, the 4th Annual Jazz in the Gardens shattered expected ticket sales, enjoying an attendance of almost 40,000, which was more than double the sales of the 2008 festival.

In 2009, the Jazz in the Gardens crowd enjoyed the hip hop flavor of Common, the beautiful neo-soul melodies of Erykah Badu, the smooth R&B of Kenneth ‘Babyface’ Edmonds and the crowd-stopping soul of Maze featuring Frankie Beverly, among other a-list artists.
