Atlanta Jazz Festival 2012 Preview – Yolanda Rabun
Today is the last day of the 2012 Atlanta Jazz Festival. If you’ve missed an opportunity to be a part of the great music and party, you’ve got one more chance, but you’ve got to do it today! The good news is that there is plenty of top-notch music left in Piedmont Park, starting today with vocalist Yolanda Rabun.
A graduate of Atlanta’s Northside School of the Arts, Ms. Rabun is a busy lady. She has worked with R & B legend Issac Hayes, opened for Tony/Grammy winner Jennifer Holiday, and has performed in festivals in Hawaii, Japan, South Korea and throughout the U.S. She is also an actress and a practicing attorney, with a JD from Boston College Law School.
In her current home of Raleigh, NC, Yolanda is the lead vocalist with the Stanley Baird Group, one of the top jazz organization in the Triangle Area. Now she has stepped out on her own with her debut CD So Real. The smooth-jazz disc has received good reviews and is making its way up the charts.
Ms. Rabun will get the last day of the 2012 Atlanta Jazz Festival off to a great start, kicking off her Piedmont Park Mainstage set at 3 pm. If you’re in the ATL, there’s no better way to spend Memorial Day.
