Thanks to all who helped us celebrate Suzette's 10th Anniversary and Bastille Day Jazz Festival! The festivities began Wednesday, July 14th at our Grand French Picnic featuring our Jazz Trio, Robin Lukas and our famous Can-Can girls! Patrons enjoyed French picnic fare and live jazz all evening.

The fest continued July 16 & 17th with Celebrity Jazz at Suzette's!

Famous Jazz Vibraphonist Warren Chiasson performed for a full house both Friday and Saturday evenings! Additional renowned Jazz talents—singer Frank D'Rone and bass player Eddie DeHaas—stopped in to shared their musical gifts with us. Chiasson has been called one of the six top vibraphonists in the last half century. He has performed on over 100 recordings including being featured on a Grammy-award-winning album with B.B. King. We hope to see him again next year for the celebration!
