Trumpeter/Flugelhornist Mark Ingraham has quickly become one of the most versatile young lions on the Richmond Jazz scene. In 2006 this Virginia-based composer founded Bungalo 6, nine talented musicians, many of whom recently graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University's renowned jazz program. Their debut album, “Radio Ready", features sassy vocals backed by powerful dance grooves and funky horn lines. The twelve original tracks not only showcase the talents of the individual players, but also the band's versatility as a whole. Ingraham has packaged an impressive collection of jazz influenced compositions, full of rhythmic and harmonic complexity, yet appealing to a wide audience. It is definitely ready! Copies of the CD will be available.

Since 1980 Richmond Jazz Society, Inc. (RJS) has presented monthly lecture/demonstrations to help the general public to understand the many facets of Jazz and how this uniquely American music is created.

Major support for this and other RJS programs is provided by The Community Foundation - Serving Richmond and Central Virginia, Chevron Corporation, The Altria Group, Inc., The Arts & Cultural Funding Consortium: The City of Richmond and the Counties of Chesterfield, Hanover and Henrico, The Virginia Commission for the Arts, The National Endowment for the Arts, Verizon, Bank of America, and The ArtsFund & Its Major Investors
