Our summer show theme is “Jazz Giants”. We will feature many of the legends of American jazz - Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Duke Ellington, Quincy Jones, Chick Corea, and Freddie Hubbard just to name a few. This is our most challenging program of the year. EBB regulars report that this is the "fan favorite". The set list skews towards instrumentals with syncopated, highly mobile horn lines enhanced by spicy solos from Mike Weddington on trumpet, Dave Hoffman on trombone, Rick Jasper on alto sax and Bill Hardin on tenor sax. Teresa sings some of the best vocal classics. This is an uptempo, wide-open show with a host of the absolutely foundational jazz classics spanning 50 years. Come out and enjoy an evening of spectacular big band jazz in the historic Andy Griffith Playhouse.
