Lunchtime Theater: We3 Jazz Trio

ABOUT THE PERFORMERS

We3 performed their very first concert together on October 1, 2016, at the Nash in downtown Phoenix. An undeniable chemistry was recognized, and the group continued to perform sold out shows at the MIM and Phoenix Theatre along with recording their first full length CD, “We’ll Meet Again”. These ladies are a powerhouse of talents combined, featuring vocalist Renee Grant Patrick (daughter to the late George Grant of the world-famous Ink Spots), violinist Suzanne Lansford, and pianist Nicole Pesce.

They have appeared on AZTV’s Channel 7 as the “Best of the Daily Mix” and made special appearances at the Chandler Jazz Festival and AZ Classic Jazz Festival, paying tribute to timeless tunes with new and familiar interpretations of popular, jazz, swing, blues standards, and so much more! Summer of 2019 found We3 entertaining in jazz clubs in all over Paris, France; In 2020, We3 produced several successful virtual “live-streamed” concerts to fans all over the world and opened up Phoenix Theatre’s outdoor stage with a two-week concert presentation of “Happy Birthday Dionne!” In 2023, We3 presented two sold out shows at the MIM, along with a special tribute concert featuring songs from the Great American Songbook at the Arts on the Rocks concert series.

This will be We3's 10th year performing with the West Valley Arts Council's Lunchtime Theater concert series.
