Johnson City Jazz Festival

The inaugural Johnson City Jazz Festival, a three-day showcase of live jazz music, is scheduled for May 18-20 at three locations in and around downtown.

The event is being produced by volunteers to promote live jazz in the region. The schedule includes a free Thursday night jam at Carnegie Hotel, a free Friday night concert at Founders Park, and the main event on Saturday -- a ticketed concert at TVA Credit Union Ballpark (formerly Cardinal Park) featuring six different artists.

Steve Scheu of Time & Pay is leading the effort and is the major sponsor.
"We have some great jazz artists in our region but there just aren't that many opportunities to see live jazz," said Scheu. "This new festival showcases the amazing talent we have around here, plus it features some very talented artists from outside our area. And we've worked hard to make it affordable for everyone."

The event schedule includes:

JC Jazz Jam - Special Edition at Carnegie Hotel
Thursday, May 18, 8-11 p.m.
Lineup:
· Maureen Renihan and Richard Shulman
· Hot Club of the Mountains
· Bill Perkins Quartet with Tom Peterson
· The Funky Truth with Danny Farmer and Martin Walters
