Frank McComb

Former Buckshot Le Fonque vocalist Frank McComb was signed to Columbia by Branford Marsalis, who remains a huge champion of his work. He specialises in the classier end of smooth jazz, with sublime vocals sounding not unlike Stevie Wonder or Donny Hathaway (complete with clever chromatic chord changes). A relatively frequent visitor to these shores, McComb now takes his show to Cotton Club for three straight nights. Should be a good one for those rainy June evenings.
