This concert was the third of five performances in the Neighborhood Arts Jazz & Contemporary Music series. 

GRAMMY-nominated vocalist and composer Débo Ray made her Series debut as a headliner with a solo performance from her home studio during the pandemic. We hope enjoyed her and her Quartet taking the stage at the Kroc Center for a free performance! The concert offered musical variety -- Débo's influences included jazz, rock, and world music, for starters -- and the blend of uncompromising skill and relatable emotion that make Débo Ray an audience favorite and valued collaborator with international stars in New York and beyond.
