Leesa Richards Quartet Shines in November in Sunshine Jazz Concert Series in Miami

Sunshine Jazz Concert Series Presents
The Leesa Richards Quartet! 


Sunday, November 25, 2018 ~ 6-9PM

The monthly Sunshine Jazz Concert Series welcomes the newest member of SJO’s family of magnificent South Florida talent, the multi-talented Ms. Leesa Richards! Leesa is a singer-songwriter-actress and dancer raised in music-rich Detroit. Influenced by  parents who listened to a lot of Jazz, she sang along to Nancy Wilson records. However, upon seeing the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, Leesa was inspired to study dance.  She began her career performing with dance companies while honing her vocal chops with soul greats Gerald Austin and Peabo Bryson. Leesa's first world tour was as a dancer with Whitney Houston, after which she combined her love for music & dance, earning the role of Mary Magdalene in the national tour of the Broadway musical, Jesus Christ Superstar. Richards has since performed with a slate of powerhouse artists including The Bee Gees, Gloria Estefan and Carole King, and has recorded with, among others, Barbra Streisand!  Leesa will be accompanied by Allen Paul on piano,  Augustin Conti on bass,
and Errol Cooper on drums.

Please join us for great live Jazz on Sunday, November 25th from 6PM-9PM in the Music Lounge at Miami Shores Country Club. MSCC features table and bar dining services and ample free parking.  General Admission $25 | SJO Members $20.
