The Jazzettes USA members are longtime friends Cami Thompson (percussion), Erika Paul (piano), and Julie Machado (bass) who perform an eclectic mix of jazz, blues, vintage pop, rock, comic delights and originals in their own unique and sassy way. Their consummate musicianship supports each other as individual female instrumentalists, lead vocalists and 3-part harmony singers, while laughter and fun weave in between the music notes of this wildly talented group of Women in Jazz.

Combined, this dynamic trio has over 150 years of professional stage, music performance and teaching experience. Their repertoire, covering 100+ years of American Jazz, continues to inspire audiences to find new ways to experience and appreciate JAZZ, America's historic original music contribution to the world.
