(Mahwah) – Jazz at the Berrie Center presents Catherine Russell and the Earl May Quartet Saturday, March 11 at 8 p.m. in the Sharp Theater on the campus of Ramapo College of New Jersey.

The vocalist has toured extensively with David Bowie, as well as performed and recorded with Jackson Browne, Paul Simon, Steeley Dan and Madonna.  Russell comes to jazz naturally.  Her father was Louis Armstrong’s musical director and her mother was a jazz bassist and vocalist.  Russell’s talent lies in her jazz renditions of some of the greatest music of our time.

This will be Russell’s first appearance at the Berrie Center.  She’ll be accompanied by bassist Earl May’s all-star quartet, featuring saxophonist Dave Glasser.

Tickets for the performance are $22 for adults, $19 for senior citizens and $15 for youth.  The Sharp Theater is located at the Angelica and Russ Berrie Center for Performing and Visual Arts on the Ramapo College campus.  For more information call 201.684.7844.

This program is made possible in part by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a Partner Agency of the National Endowment for the Arts.
