Robert Johnson & the Mark Diamond Trio, Mark’s Birthday Bash

This band was initially created for a residency at one of the premier jazz clubs in Denver, CO. The performances were so successful, enjoyed by both the audience and band members alike, that the band decided to continue performing together. Featuring Mark Diamond on bass, with Victor Mestas on piano and Mike Marlier on drums, they form the foundation for the amazing vocals of Robert Johnson, who was a member of Stevie Wonder’s band for five years. Robert’s voice soars, croons, scats, melts you into your seat, and at times makes you get up and dance! This group plays wonderfully arranged jazz standards as well as a variety of other genres from Brazilian Bossa Novas to some down home Blues. Don’t be surprised when you hear The Stylistics and Stevie Wonder, too!
