Jean Kittrell
Hailed internationally as "America's First Lady of Jazz," Jean Kittrell retired in July, 2008 after decades of performing trad jazz in clubs, concerts, festivals, jubilees, jazz cruises and on showboats. Jean has worked with numerous bands including her own: Jazz Incredibles, St. Louis Rivermen, and the Old St. Louis Levee Band. Jean was guest of honor at our first Traditional Jazz Parties, but was unable to come later because of her busy schedule. We are honored to have her with us again this year.

Julianna became a part of the Naples Daily News Traditional Jazz Band in 1996 and quickly became SW Florida's finest trad jazz vocalist. She has performed in concert, festivals, jazz cruises, and private parties with the Naples Dixieland Band, Tamiami Tailgators, Happy Jazz Trio, Roy Land Trad Jass Band, and more. She regards Jean Kittrell as her mentor and inspiration. Julianna recently moved to Philadelphia, but continues to support the NDJB with occasional appearances.
