Najee to perform
at Missouri Black Expo
benefit show
Najee
This just in, via the Post-Dispatch: Smooth jazz saxophonist Najee will perform at 6 p.m. on Friday, August 19 at the Pageant for the Missouri Black Expo's American Family Insurance Community Benefit Gala. Tickets are $28.50 for balcony seating or $100 for VIP seating, which includes dinner, parking and a private reception. Tickets go on sale at 5 p.m. Friday, July 29. Call 314-361-5772 for tickets and information.
The benefit is the kickoff event for the Missouri Black Expo, which takes place August 19 - 21 at the Convention Center in St. Louis. The MBE usually includes a couple of nights of musical performances in addition to the speakers, workshops, exhibitors and other events, and while R&B and hip-hop are the main attractions, in the past there have been some jazz and old-school soul artists as well. Unfortunately, their Web site doesn't yet list the lineup for this year's Music Fest, but if there's more jazz in the offing, I'll post about it here as soon as I get details.
