We took a long walk around the park after dark...we found a place for Detroit jazz/fusion lovers to spark...
Just about every paid seat was filled; people were in their lawn chairs in the spacious and meticulously maintained green spaces, and lots of lucky boaters parked their watercraft on the
Detroit River.
The night was perfect; the weather was perfect; the venue was perfect; Jill was perfect! Major props to
North Philly!
Opening for Jill was an awesome musician named
Bilal Sayeed Oliver--also from Philly--we could have listened to more of him.
You can get Jill Scott's latest album,
The Real Thing, here; and Bilal's wonderful jazz/soul/fusion album,
Soul Sista here.
Check out the remaining artists slated for
Chene Park, and have some wonderful staycations right here in the "D"!
