Ron Carter
Ron Carter in Scranton, PA. One week from now, on August 9th, you will find me on the bandstand at the Scranton Jazz Festival , alongside the Scranton Jazz Fest Big Band.
The Scranton Jazz Festival, established in 2005, has grown into a vital cultural event in northeastern Pennsylvania, now held at the historic Radisson Lackawanna Station Hotel in downtown Scranton. Taking place each August over a three-day weekend, the festival presents an impressive array of international, national, and regional jazz, blues, and world music artists. Scranton has a deep jazz heritage, dating back to the 1930s and early festivals like the 1951 Cavalcade of Dixieland Jazz. This event carries forward a longstanding musical tradition.
I look forward to seeing you there next week, folks... Find your tickets on www.RonCarterJazz.com
