JAZZ TRUMPETER MARK RAPP PLAYS FOR PLAYMATE’S BIRTHDAY

Mark Rapp will play a very special performance for Playboy Playmate Natalia Sokolova on October 15th. The exclusive birthday party will play host to top playmates, models including Julia Hendersen (Sport Illustrated), Jessica Gomes (Victoria Secret) and actors from the Sopranos, Entourage among others.

Sokolova discovered Rapp through her event planning company Exquisite Planning, LLC. After hearing his music, Sokolova contacted and requested Rapp to play for her at her private birthday celebration.

Rapp recently recorded his debut effort under the supportive eye of Grammy Award winning producer Jason Olaine and hip-hop engineer “LB” Dorsey who works with the Roots and Beyonce. Yet to be released, Rapp invites you to stay informed, enjoy free downloads and keep in touch through his web site, markrapp.com. You can also catch the Mark Rapp Group performing regularly in and around New York City.

Sokolova founded Exquisite Planning, LLC because of her desire to give back. Organizing fundraisers, fashionable corporate events and upscale parties, Sokolova continues to donate her time and energy to charities and to help those less fortunate than she.
