SHARÓN CLARK: TRIBUTE TO BALTIMORE’S ETHEL ENNIS

June 29, 2023 @ 7:30 pm ~9:00 pm EDT

$30 – $35

Sharón Clark [Vocals]
Benjie Porecki [Piano]
Lenny Robinson [Drums]
Michael Bowie [Bass]

Sharón Clark will be doing a tribute to Baltimore’s own, Ethel Ennis, who was an American jazz singer whose career spanned seven decades. Ennis spent the majority of her life in her hometown of Baltimore, Maryland, where she was affectionately known as the “First Lady of Jazz.”

“You can’t underestimate the transformation of what seems like an ordinary song when an interpreter like Sharón Clark…tears it apart and peers inside” – The New York Times

DC jazz fans beat a path to clubs whenever singer Sharón Clark takes the stage. This prolific artist has assumed the mantle of Washington’s Queen of Jazz. Jazz Times calls her “a revelation… I never thought I’d hear a singer with the range, musicality and command of tone and timbre that was Sarah [Vaughan] at her best, but now I have.” As a youngster, Sharón Clark started her career with her twin sister as the Bottle Caps, making promotional appearances for the Coca-Cola Company, and she got her first solo jazz gig singing at King’s Dominion. Today, she’s a regular at DC’s Blues Alley and is a featured soloist with the Smithsonian Jazz Masterworks Orchestra. No stranger to the road, Sharón Clark has headlined at major festivals across the U.S. and toured internationally—she has a faithful fan base in Europe, Russia and Israel.

Ticket Fees: $3.10 – $3.46
