One of the Coachella Valley’s most respected musicians, radio hosts, event promotor and champion of his fellow musicians, jimi FITZ Fitzgerald, will be honored at Steinway Society of Riverside County’s Bravo Children in Music event, Sunday, Feb. 19, 11 a.m. at The Classic Club. Tickets are $160 per person and available through the website, www.steinwayriverside.org or by calling 760-341-4130.

“Fitz is such a well-known personality for his longtime radio music programs, producing Fitz’s Jazz Café at the McCallum Theatre for 20 years, his songwriting and well received albums, and his bringing all his local musician friends together for two back-to-back memorable Fitz and Friends at the McCallum a few years ago, as well as producing the Gardens on El Paseo charity series for 17 years and raising more than $1 million for local charities,” said Steinway founder/CEO Ruth Moir. “But most of all, his putting the spotlight on local musicians has truly encouraged and inspired young people to pursue their music careers. Honoring Fitz with the Bravo award is fitting with Steinway’s mission to ‘bring music to children.’”
