Reggie and Mardra Thomas to perform
benefit concert on Wednesday, September 28

There have already been a number of benefit concerts to raise money for survivors of Hurricane Katrina here in St. Louis, and area musicians from the east side of the Mississippi River are doing their part, too. Jazz pianist/organist Reggie Thomas and his vocalist wife Mardra will headline a concert to benefit survivors of Hurricane Katrina beginning at 7 p.m, Wednesday, September 28 at the Edwardsville High School auditorium, 6161 Center Grove Road in Edwardsville.

The concert will also include performances by Mat Conway and Jen Mellick, the Edwardsville High School Jazz Band, and the Eden Praise Choir. Admission to the event, which is sponsored by Edwardsville Cares, is $5, and proceeds will go to help hurricane evacuees now living in the Metro East area.
