Let's hit the (jazz) club ... live jazz in Rochester, January 21-27
January 20, 2016
OK, I admit it, the headline is a bit aspirational given there are no jazz clubs in Rochester proper (that's why it's in parens).
After the "fold" (click the link if there is one for you) you will find the next seven days of live jazz in and around Rochester. Let me know if any regular gigs below are no longer happening or if you have heard of anything that's not in the listings. Check back later in the week for stragglers.
Please give us some love and help get the word out about Jazz@Rochester! Do you know someone who loves going out to hear live jazz?
