I'm afraid there is not much (sorry) ... Live jazz in Rochester, August 8-14
August 07, 2019
Jazz artists need vacations, too! I'm sure there is more out there, but this is what's been sent in or I found elsewhere.... Check out the upcoming events at the end as there are some great new entries there.
Every Wednesday, every week, you'll find the next seven days of jazz in and around Rochester right here on JazzRochester. Sign up for our email list to get your local jazz goodness every week (plus, whatever else I publish from time to time). Share us with your friends and family who love live jazz. Check us out on social media (links at the top of the column to the right). Whatever floats your boat....
If you hear about something that I haven't added below, please drop me a line (use the Contact Us link above), give me the deets, and I'll add it to the post. As always, let me know if any gigs below are not happening or if I got something wrong. It's also a good idea to check the site before you head out.
