Grammy award winning soul jazz singer Porter graces the green for a juneteenth evening show. As part of the International Festival of Arts and Ideas, Porter’s baritone blend of socially conscious tunes engaged a solid crowd. The band was piano, standup bass, sax,drums, and organ. Porter is comfortable scatting, crooning, or covering soul nuggets. On this Father’s Day evening,we got a little Papa Was a Rolling Stone, My Girl, and some Stevie Wonder medley. Porter’s Take Me ToThe Alley and Water Under The Bridge were both excellent. Happy to see a racially diverse, attentive crowd take advantage of this free show.
