ABOUT
City Winery Atlanta and The Townsend3x Agency presents Denise Thimes: The Best of Phyllis Hyman & Nina Simone on October 9th at 8pm!

After describing her brilliant voice as a perfect mix of Nancy, Sassy, and Lady Day, it came only naturally that the late legendary jazz trumpeter Clark Terry would, at New York’s historical Flushing Town Hall, select Denise Thimes as that night’s featured vocalist.
