If you aren’t familiar with the name Kimmie Horne, there’s a good chance you’d recognize her voice. She’s a descendant of the legendary singer Lena Horne, and she performed at a new jazz club in San Marco Saturday night.
The owner of that club, Breezy’s Jazz, which officially opened Thursday, said Saturday was an exciting night for her, as she’s working hard to keep jazz alive in Jacksonville.
“When you walk into Breezy, I want it to be an experience from the front door,” said owner Thea Jeffers.
Loved ones on Thursday revealed that one of the victims in a triple murder in Northwest Jacksonville was a 30-year-old mother, who was all about the well-being of her family.
