Hey there! Is JB (Jonathan Butler) scheduled to come this summer 2009?
We LUV him! He is the main reason that we attend, and we wished that he had more notoriety in the US.
Also, we are missing smooth jazz in Denver???
Blessings!
The lineup still hasn’t been announced. Should be out sometime in April or May. Stay tuned and we will let you know when we hear.
Hello I have had the pleasure of attending the jazz festival for many, many years and it would be a great ideal to get feed back from dedicated fans on who they would like to see perform at the jazz fest. I feel this will keep revenue up and the festival a sucecess. Just take a look at the line-up for the Capital Jazz festival held in Baltimore. I personally would like to see Angie Stone, Frankie Beverly and Maze, Al, Jareu, Michael Philps and Will Downing just to name a few. I know these artist will sell out the concert. Can’t wait for the line-up to come out. Hope they don’t short change us by bringing back the same artist year after year.
Here is the linup that the Winter Park Chamber has released so far:
Saturday, July 25th
Fourplay
Warren Hill
War
Sunday, July 26th
Boney James
Sax for Stax
Rippingtons
We will keep you posted as to when the full lineup is releases as well as ticket prices and such.
I love the Winter Park Jazz Festival…especially the after parties with Al Your Pal….Is Al Your Pal going to DJ at Smokin’ Moes this year?
How does one get added to the list for a local group to perform at the festival?
Hi Chris,
Just contact the Winter Park/Fraser Chamber of Commerce at 970-726-4118 or email cross@playwinterpark.com to reach the director.
Hi Anglela,
The after party is great! I’m not sure if Al your Pal will be at Smokin’ Moes this year, but I bet you can find out by going to http://www.grandblues.org. See you this summer and contact us if you need lodging at info@wplbo.com.
