Dwight Lennox & Trio
Scottish Rite Auditorium
941 Wheeling Avenue, Cambridge
Growing up in New York, Dwight honed his talent in the church choir. He went on to study and perform musical styles as diverse as country and rock 'n' roll. But his gospel roots, combined with such childhood influences as Nancy Wilson, Nat Cole and Sarah Vaughn, made jazz a natural showcase for his talent. From blues to ballads and jazz to swing, Dwight shines. His impeccable instincts and mellow sound have garnered the attention of some of the finest musicians in the industry. He's performed with Sammy Tucker and renowned organist Hank Marr. He's been showcased alongside the likes of Freddie Hubbard, Bobbie Humphrys, Ramsey Lewis and Herbie Mann. As a featured vocalist with the 17-piece Columbus Jazz Orchestra, he's shared the stage with Harold Jones and Carmen Bradford. Dwight's fluid style lends itself to a vast repertoire from Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra, James Ingram, Stevie Wonder, Lou Rawls and many more artists. But his raw abilities are uniquely evidenced in his performance of original music. He's sung on numerous recordings, including works for commercial and corporate use. He's an accomplished studio session singer and not surprisingly, Dwight is also a talented songwriter himself.
Tickets are $15.00 per person. Show begins at 3:00 p.m.
