Eddie Russell is one of the premier jazz trumpeters in the Caribbean and needs little introduction to local jazz aficionados. Having performed on stage with some of the top names in the industry, Russell has been a mainstay in the Caribbean and Latin jazz scene for many years.
Joining him on stage as the QLJ Band (Quelbe Latin Jazz) is an all-star cast of Caribbean jazz artists. Otto James on keyboards, Mario Russell on bass, Larry Bough on drums and timbales, and Wilfred "Junie Bomba" Allick on congas and bongos. Eddie Russell and the Quelbe Latin Jazz Band will perform at the January Sunset Jazz at 6 p.m., on Friday, Jan. 16, at the Fort Frederik Beach near the Frederiksted Ball Park.
