Rooted in the vibrant heart of Cleveland’s music scene, Dwyte Paris brings a lifetime of soulful artistry to the stage. His journey began at just five years old, singing in church, and blossomed into a rich musical career that includes playing saxophone in Cleveland’s prestigious All-City program in 1957. With a voice shaped by gospel traditions and a style defined by smooth, expressive delivery, Dwyte leads the Blue Velvet Ensemble. They are a collective of seasoned musicians who blend jazz, soul, and R&B into a velvet-smooth experience that captivates audiences.
Whether performing in historic venues or community celebrations, their sound is timeless, heartfelt, and deeply rooted in the spirit of Cleveland.
