DESCRIPTION:It’s been said that getting through the day without hearing one
  Johnny Mercer song is almost impossible—and why would you want to?  Georgi
 a’s own Johnny Mercer wrote the lyrics to over 1\,400 songs\, including fou
 r Academy Award-winners.  From the light-hearted “You Must Have Been a Beau
 tiful Baby” and “Jeepers Creepers” to the cinematic “Hooray for Hollywood” 
 and the timeless “Moon River\,” Mercer wrote words and music for an America
 n century.  Hard-bop trumpeter and vocalist Joe Gransden and beloved blues\
 , jazz\, and gospel singer Francine Reed join the Georgia State University 
 Jazz Band’s tribute to Mercer’s incomparable legacy\, as they perform a sel
 ection of his many hits and new arrangements of some of his unpublished wor
 ks.\n\n“A song is born in excitement\, has a robust life climbing the popul
 arity charts and traveling to the ends of the earth and then\, like rare ol
 d wine\, brings back nothing but sweet memories.” – Johnny Mercer\n\nThis c
 oncert is made possible by generous support from The Johnny Mercer Foundati
 on and the Georgia State University Library.\n\nFree (validated) parking is
  available for this Rialto Series event at the 100 Peachtree Parking Garage
