Diverse is excited to announce tomorrow marks the first day of the Arts Enterprise-Sponsored University Clinic Tour.

The circuit includes clinics and concerts at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor and Bowling Green State University. The tour dates are March 10, 13, and 15, respectively. In addition, Diverse will perform at Nighttown, one of the most respected jazz clubs in Cleveland.

Jane Higgins, the the band’s publicist, took some time to offer comments on the tour:

“The fact that three of the members of Diverse are still undergraduate students speaks volumes to the significance of this tour.” Higgins, touted “publicist extraordinaire” by Saint Louis’River Front Times, has represented artists such as hip-hop icon Nelly and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Inductee Johnnie Johnson.

“Undergraduate students providing educational jazz clinics and performances to arts students at other institutions is virtually unheard of”, she continues. “Diverse is truly a special group with immensely talented up-and-coming musicians.”
