Who: The Jessica Blinn Quartet
Jazz & Swing
Jessica Blinn has been performing all around the Pacific Northwest, from bistros and dinner clubs to swing dances and festivals. Her band’s slick sound energizes their interpretations of swing standards and jazz ballads. Professor Syd Potter’s elegant flugelhorn, Cameron Arneson’s steady bass, and Daven Tillinghast’s mischievous guitar provide the velvet backdrop that let’s Jessica shine, prompting the Tacoma News Tribune to comment “Jessica Blinn plays a soulful violin…[and] wows the audience.”
