Jeremy Davenport

Don't miss Jeremy Davenport when you stay at The Iberville Suites.

Jeremy Davenport performs live on level 3, at The Ritz-Carlton, New Orleans- every Thursday 5:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. and Fridays and Saturdays 9 p.m. to 1 a.m.

Davenport appeared in GQ, was named by People Magazine as one of "America's Top 50 Bachelors" and has appeared in The Times-Picayune, Kingfish Magazine, WHERE Magazine, Visitor Magazine and American Way Magazine. To further enhance his star power, Davenport can be seen regularly on the Food Network as part of celebrity Chef Emeril Lagasse's hit show Emeril Live.

Touted as "a crooner for the 21st century", Davenport's stylings are a tribute to his childhood influences- Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Billy Holiday, Sammy Davis, Jr., Nat "King" Cole, Louis Armstrong and Miles Davis. Davenport's signature trumpet provides the perfect accompaniment for his smooth and soulful jazz lyrics.

Born in St. Louis, this son of musicians found his way down the Mississippi to New Orleans with the help of some of the City's "favorite sons", Ellis Marsalis, Wynton Marsalis and Harry Connick, Jr. In fact, he toured with Connick as a member of his band. His love of the Big Easy and the City's deep jazz roots, is why Davenport now calls New Orleans home. In fact, he was voted into the 2000 New Orleans Jazz Hall of Fame.
