About this event

Step back in time for an unforgettable evening of spirited jazz. From the roaring Gatsby era through the timeless sounds of Fats Waller and Ella Fitzgerald, Bent String brings early American roots music, acoustic blues, and jazz classics to life. Fronted by the stunning vocals of Kari Ann Rutushin, this dynamic quintet features Reed Simon on hot violin, Tri‑C Jazz legend Joe Hunter on piano, Kevin Richards on arch‑top guitars, and Cleveland Blues Hall of Famer Raymond DeForest on upright bass. A vibrant celebration of swing and soul.
