Vocalist Laurin Talese takes the stage at the next “Sundays at Six,” on Aug. 11 at the Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences. Doors open at 5:15 p.m. for cocktails, and the two-hour performance begins at 6 p.m.

“Although her greatest affinity is jazz, Laurin Talese is versatile within many musical genres,” LBIF says of the Cleveland, Ohio, native, who attended the University of the Arts in Philadelphia.
