Purnell Steen & the Five Points Ambassadors
Thursday, Feb. 24 - 6:30pm and 9pm
Celebrating Black History Month
Special Guest Artist-Sheryl Renee. Purnell Steen and The Five Points Ambassadors (also known as LeJazz Machine) is a band dedicated to playing and preserving the music of Denver’s legendary Five Points neighborhood. The Blues-oriented Hard Bop music is basically Swing style. And Denver’s own scintillating Myra Warren rounds out the ensemble. For their annual show in Celebration of Black History Month, they will definitely Swing and Sway the Five Points Way, and, ever the storyteller, Purnell will share the histories of Black artists who have worked and played in Five Points.
Purnell Steen (piano), Myra Warren (vocals), Ed Stephen (guitar), Vohn Regensburger (brazilian guitar), Ron Bland (bass), Derek Banach (trumpet), Carlos Chavez (saxophone), Bill Larson (drums)
