Backstoppers benefit concert,
CD release set for November 4

A number of St. Louis jazz and pop musicians and singers are banding together for a concert and CD to benefit the Backstoppers, the local not-for-profit organization that aids the families of police officers, firefighters and paramedics who have died while performing their duties.

"Someone To Watch Over Me" is the theme of both the CD and the concert, which will take place on Sunday, November 4 at The Pageant, featuring the talents of Anita Rosamond (pictured), Ralph Butler, Jeanne Trevor, Jim Manley, Wild Cool & Swingin' and others yet to be announced. In addition to performing at the show, the participating artists have donated tracks for the CD, which will go on sale that night.

Tickets for the concert go on sale this Friday via the Pageant box office and Ticketmaster.
