| DIVA Jazz Orchestra, 30 Years in the making + 3D Jazz Trio, 9 to 5 3D Jazz Trio 9 to 5 Artist: 3D Jazz Trio CD Title: 9 to 5 Label: DIVA Jazz Add Date: January 9, 2023 Street Date:December 2, 2022 Jackie Warren piano Amy Shook acoustic bass Sherrie Maricle drum set Fiercely swinging on purpose, with purpose, this powerhouse trio plays original, traditional, and contemporary standards from all genres of music. Their unique style and innovative arrangements are always supercharged by their boundless musical joy and gratitude. Sherrie, Amy, and Jackie met in May of 2014 at the Cleveland Playhouse while playing in The DIVA Jazz Orchestra as part of Maurice Hines' award-winning show Tappin' Thru Life. From their first shared downbeat, they became kindred-swinging spirits, and the resulting musical synergy was fast and fierce - or, as the New York Times said, 'Blistering Hot!' Since its inception, 3D has performed at many of the world's most prestigious venues and festivals, including The Blue Note (NYC), Dizzy's Club (NYC), Mezzrow (NYC), Lincoln Center Out-of-Doors (NYC), The Jazz Kitchen (Indianapolis, IN), Blues Alley (DC), Tri-C Jazz Festival (Cleveland, OH), The Deer Head Inn (Delaware Water Gap, PA), Rochester International Jazz Festival (Rochester, NY), and The Gilmore International Keyboard Festival (Kalamazoo, MI). In addition, they were featured on The Kate TV's "live" music series with Maurice Hines (PBS) and three times on WVIA radio's Homegrown Music Series. 3D's most recent recording, 9 to 5, was released in December 2022. Other recordings include Christmas in 3D (2020), I Love to See You Smile (2020), and 3Divas (2017). 3D is: Jackie Warren: Cleveland Jazz Legend Award winner. Sought after guest soloist. Revered educator at Tri-C College. Amy Shook: Critically acclaimed jazz bassist. Clinician and guest artist. Multi-instrumentalist and composer. Sherrie Maricle: Ronald McDonald House – New York, Music for Hope Award-Winner; Kennedy Center - Mary Lou Williams Lifetime Achievement Award Winner; Ovation Award for Best Music Direction – Tappin Thru Life. Dedicated teacher. Each member of 3D is a Crazy Cat Lady. Maintaining our mission to "fiercely swing on purpose, with purpose, " the music we've selected for 9 to 5 includes arrangements we've had in our library for years and some that were created especially for this recording. From our in-the-pocket swingers to the classic Afro-Cuban anthem "Lágrimas Negras, " a bembe-swing treatment of "Tin Tin Deo, " our reimagined treatment of Dolly Parton's multi-Grammy winning "9 to 5, " our "Sing" tribute to Karen Carpenter, and our heartfelt originals, this is music that inspires us, the music we love, and music we enthusiastically share with you.
