Don’t forget about tonight’s MOJO Jambalaya saluting the sultry talents of Ms. Peggy Lee.
This special midsummer program features vocalist Angie Powers, guitarist Jim Armstrong, saxophonist/keyboardist Sandy Spivey, bassist Joe “Jo Jo” Morris, Jr. and drummer Jimmy Roebuck.
The developer is Nancy Hanna and rumor has it a WKRG celebrity is involved in the program.
The steamy proceedings begin at 6:30 p.m., per usual, at Gulf City Lodge (601 State St.). Entrance is $10, $7 for MOJO members. A light jambalaya dinner is included and a cash bar is available.
From Kevin Lee: “North Dakota-born Peggy Lee rose to fame as a vocalist, eventually fronting Benny Goodman’s band and eventually bridged the worlds of jazz and pop. However, she’s best known for setting the world afire with her sultry rendition of “Fever” and pulling in three Grammy awards and an Academy Award nomination among a list of others.”
