ROCKY MOUNT, N.C. -- Prime Smokehouse's Dinner Jazz Series closes out with a bang as swinging song stylist Karla Harris comes to town on Friday and Saturday, September 4-5.
" I can’t wait to meet the Rocky Mount audience and share an evening of swing, soul and storytelling,” says Harris, a recent recipient of the Jazz Hero Award from the Jazz Journalists Association and honoree of Atlanta Magazine's Women Making a Mark Award. "Every new city offers the possibility of a special connection."

Joining her on stage will be Tyrone Jackson on piano, Chris Burroughs on drums and Kelly McCarty on bass, all phenomenal musicians in their own right. “My bandmates are not simply accompanying me – they’re helping shape every musical moment.
