Singer Mardra Thomas and the Jazz Gentlemen Quartet will be the featured performers at a benefit for radio station KWMU (90.7 FM) to be he held at 7 p.m. on Thursday, January 24 at the Bistro at Grand Center, 3536 Washington Ave. (Yes, that's the room that's usually home to Jazz at the Bistro, but since this show is not technically under the auspices of Jazz St. Louis, we refer to the venue by its alternate/official name.)
DJ and author Dennis Owsley, who hosts Jazz Unlimited Sunday nights on KWMU, also will act host for these festivities. I don't know who's in the Jazz Gentlemen Quartet, but I certainly hope the very talented pianist Reggie Thomas, Mardra's husband, is involved somehow; look for more details on their personnel as they are made available to StLJN.
Tickets for the benefit are $15 in advance, $20 day of show and can be reserved by calling 314-516-KWMU, or for more details, see the event listing on KWMU's Web site.
