In my pursuit of melodies, I bumped into these lovely women in Barbados who are bent on keeping the tradition of Ella Fitzgerald’s scat singing alive and well. Women in Jazz South Florida, Inc.’s founder and director Joan Cartwright saluted Ebonnie Rowe, founder of Honey Jam Barbados at the Hilton Hotel in St. Michael, Barbados on January 26, 2017.

Joan Cartwright of Women in Jazz South Florida, Inc. meets Ebonnie Rowe of Honey Jam in Barbados at the Tribute to ELLA!

Featuring Kellie Cadogan, Betty Payne, and more!
