We talked about the Cleveland Jazz Celebration on January 21, at 6:30pm, details below, in the Cleveland auditorium, Jobim and much more. -Shawn Kirkeby

A Jazz Celebration: Seven Bands, Fred Wesley under Kenney Polson direction.



Hosford as well as six other area bands will be performing from 6:30 - 9:00.
Funk and jazz artist Fred Wesley, most noted for his work with James Brown, will also be performing. Tickets cost $10 and 85% of any tickets being sold our jazz bands.

Mr. Polson needs help pushing ticket sales in order to buy t-shirts for the
band and to get a jump on a good set of vibes that will cost about $2000.

The Hosford Jazz Band is participating in Cleveland High School's Jazz Celebration on Friday, January 21st at 6:30.
Seven area bands (I am still trying to find out mor about these and will pass along any info I get) as well international trombonist Fred Wesley will be performing.

It promises to be an entertaining evening.
