Singers Denise Thimes and Anita Rosamond and bassist Tom Kennedy (pictured) are among the musicians who will be on board for the fall 2009 edition of “The Jazz Cruise" produced by the St. Louis-based company Jazz Cruises LLC. The cruise is scheduled for November 8 - 15 on the Holland America ship Westerdam, and will traverse the Caribbean visiting ports of call such as St. Thomas, St. Barth's and Half Moon Cay.

The three St. Louisans on “The Jazz Cruise" will be part of a large roster of players known primarily for mainstream jazz and swing, including several who have appeared in recent years in St. Louis, such as singer Karrin Allyson, pianist Shelly Berg, singer/pianist Freddie Cole and saxophonists Houston Person and Tom Scott.
