It's time for September Jazz in Kemah, and this year marks some special moments. Kemah Jazz Fest Organizer Robert Wilson reports:
"As the UHD Civic Jazz Orchestra begins its 14th year, special thanks to two members who have been part of the group since the beginning, bassist Erin Wright and trombonist David Guiterrez. Also, a special welcome to our newest member, a valuable addition to the band, jazz vocalist Julie Palmer. Julie will make her first appearance with the CJO on Sunday, September 26th, at the 7th Annual Kemah Boardwalk Jazz Festival."
