With a beautifully smooth and soulful voice, Pacific Northwest Jazz, Folk & Blues vocal artist Jean Lenke paints music in full color, with broad strokes and a free hand. As bandleader her approach to music is free spirited, crossing boundaries and mixing genres ~ she doesn’t always color inside the lines.

Christine Moon is a recent transplant from Portland, Oregon. Her repertoire includes the Great American Songbook, big band and modern pop tunes. Christine’s voice has been described as “velvet” and “chocolate-ty.” She has played with some of the top musicians in Portland.

Avery Saul is a passionate singer and aspiring musician whose love for performing began in high school choir and theatre. She was a member of two select choirs—one earning recognition at the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival—and has since performed frequently with the Peninsula College.

Trinity United Methodist Church is located at 609 Taylor Street, across from the Community Center, in Uptown. Attendees should plan on arriving early – doors will open at 6:30. Masks are encouraged for in-person attendees.
