Everyone But Me ~ Marc Pompe ~ Jazz - Blues~ CD ~ New

Editorial Reviews

Marc Pompe began performing around Rush Street in Chicago as a solo piano/vocalist and was influenced by the music of Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie and Thelonious Monk, and vocally by stylings of Frank Sinatra, Joe Williams, Ella Fitzgerald, Carmen McCrae and Jon Hendricks. In 1965, Pompe left Chicago to work out of New York and played at Jilly's (NYC), Eddie's Backstreet in St. Thomas, the Gaslight Club in Toronto and Mother's Lounge in Pittsburgh. Pompe continues performing in the Chicago area today. He is currently working on a ten-piece disc with trumpeter/arranger Bobby Ojeda dedicated to his recently-departed long-time friend, saxophonist Bob Centano. Pompe's latest CD is Everyone But Me.
