Billy Marcus’ bands, including the great bassist, Don Mosely, and  excellent drummer Gary Duchaine, were among the most popular and successful in S. Florida for over a decade during the mid-70’s and 80’s. They played every hot club, venue and festival, and backed up national acts including James Moody, Mark Murphy, Buddy DeFranco and more. Before joining the Swiss Jazz School “Hochschule der Künst”, Ms. Patton toured with U of M’s Jazz Orchestra and performed with artists including Lionel Hampton, Dizzy Gillespie, Clark Terry and Cab Calloway. She will be traveling from her home in Switzerland to lend her wonderful voice in celebration of the continuity of SJO’s impact on the Cultural Arts and Jazz in South Florida.

Admission is just $20.00 and tickets can be purchased in advance through SunJazzOrg@aol.com, or at the Door.  Please join us on Saturday, September 28th, 2013 at Avenue D Jazz and Blues Lounge, 8 South Miami Avenue, Miami, FL 33131 (305)377-8899.
