Jackie Ryan Quintet
Thursday, January 15

Featuring: Jackie Ryan - vocals; Jeff Pittson - piano; Omar Clay - drums; Charles McNeal - saxophone

Jackie Ryan is a prominent premier jazz vocalist in the first sense of the word. Ryan hails from San Francisco and has tremendous list of musical accomplishments, including her now three CDs, one of which just released and in stores, titled is "This Heart Of Mine" – which is already in Jazzweek’s Top 10 National Radio Airplay chart. Her stage presence is outstanding as she adds complete liveliness with keeping time by dancing and moving in be-bop fashion to the music between her jazz-vocalizing choruses. Joining Ryan are Charles McNeal, saxophone; Jeff Pittson, piano, Ruth Davies, bass and Omar Clay, drums.

"...a true jazz singer - and a damn good one, too! I've had the pleasure of concertizing with her so I know. Be sure to give a good listen to this CD, and when you have a chance to catch her in person - do it!"
