We are going to be playing a FREE mini jazz fest in Marshall this Saturday, June 27. The folks over at the Jazz Foundation of America put this together to help celebrate and rebuild our community. They also stepped up in a big way with grants to working musicians in the aftermath of Helene. We appreciate them, and are excited about being part of a Great Day in Marshall! You'll find us at 4:30pm at MadCo Brewing on Main Street. ... See MoreSee Less
