The 2019 fest featured Gladys Knight, Brian Culbertson and Kirk Whalum. The festival has drawn some of the biggest names in jazz over the years. Dizzy Gillespie played at the first one, and Tony Bennett, Diana Krall, George Benson, Miles Davis, Al Jarreau, Diane Schuur and Mavis Staples are among the stars who have played at the festival.
