Bethesda Blues & Jazz Supper Club (Bethesda Blues and Jazz), an inviting entertainment venue that hosts amazing musical performances and provides fine dining experiences as well as private and corporate events, announces that singer/songwriter Rickie Lee Jones will perform at the venue on Sunday June 22nd at 8:30 pm. Doors will open for the event at 6:30 pm and admission into the event will be $40.00 in advance, $50.00 the day of the show.

Two-time Grammy winner Jones exploded onto the pop scene in 1978 and has made a career of fearlessly experimenting with her sound and persona. A cultural phenomenon, Rolling Stone Magazine put her on its cover twice in two years, and Saturday Night Live gave her an unprecedented three songs for her second appearance. Jones is both a character in the songs and the songwriter singing, defying convention with her sometimes brazen sexuality and the mixed bag of jazz, rock and 'confessional' songwriter performances. Her second album “Pirates” is one of the seminal recordings of pop music. Her latest album “The Devil You Know” is produced by Ben Harper.

“We are thrilled to announce Rickie Lee Jones’ appearance at the theatre,” says owner Rick Brown.  “Over the course of her career, spanning over three decades, Rickie has recorded in various musical styles including rock, R&B, blues, pop, soul, and jazz standards. It is an honor to present this icon on our stage June 22nd.”
