Jazz Band says, “Step aside, Pharrell, okayyyy”💁🏽💁🏾‍♀️💁🏼‍♂️

Of course we jest, but for real, how fun was our show at The Mayflower Club (@themayflowerclub) last Thursday!? The room was vibrant and the audience raved about the energy, the songs, and the solos!

Thanks so much if you came out and better yet, if you donated to the band while you were there! We❤️ya!

If you can’t get enough jazz, the band will perform at our holiday concert, Winter Wonderband!

Now we’re not promising anything, but you will hear a Christmas fave (hint:🥜 )
