Lineup
The Seattle Jazz Fellowship is an IRS recognized 501(c)3 registered not-for-profit corporation. The organization is funded via five revenue sources: annual memberships, corporate sponsorship, grants, ticket sales and individual donations. Where possible, we partner with other jazz and community organizations to carry out our work and assist others in the promotion of jazz music.
Trumpeter, composer, and producer Thomas Marriott is a force for jazz on the west coast. He’s paid dues beside jazz elders such as Maynard Ferguson, Roy McCurdy, Julian Priester, Ernie Watts, Roger Humphries, Mike Clark and Stix Hooper, and has been called on by contemporary standard-bearers like Joe Locke, Orrin Evans, Steve Wilson, and Charlie Hunter.
Composer/band leader/poet/drummer D’Vonne Lewis is the grandson of the ‘Godfather’ of rock and roll/soul: 1950’s-1960’s Northwest organ legend Dave Lewis. D’Vonne is a first-call drummer to many bands and legendary musicians, nationally and worldwide. Lewis graduated from Seattle’s Roosevelt High School in 2002 and was a member of the award-winning jazz band, directed by SRJO trombonist, Scott Brown.
