Over the course of a multifaceted career spanning four decades, three time Grammy and Tony Award-winning Jazz giant Dee Dee Bridgewater has ascended to the upper echelon of vocalists, putting her unique spin on standards, as well as taking intrepid leaps of faith in re-envisioning Jazz classics. Bridgewater served as member of the legendary Thad Jones/Mel Louis Big Band, and throughout the 70's she performed with such Jazz notables as Max Roach, Sonny Rollins, Dexter Gordon and Dizzy Gillespie.

Dee Dee's Feathers gives a modern vision of New Orleans, painted through the collaboration of New Orleans Jazz Orchestra's (NOJO) Artistic Director Irvin Mayfield and honorary Chairperson Dee Dee Bridgewater. Traditional songs such as "Big Chief", "Saint James Infirmary", and "What A Wonderful World" along with new compositions "Congo Square" and "C'est Ici Que Je T'aime" will transport people through the newly constructed home of Dee Dee Bridgewater in the historic neighborhood of the Tremé.

Irvin Mayfield is a two-time Grammy and Billboard Award-winning artist with 15 albums to his credit. Mayfield is the founding Artistic Director of the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra and currently serves as Artistic Director of Jazz at the Minnesota Orchestra. He is a professor at the University of New Orleans, where he also serves as Director of the New Orleans Jazz Institute.
