Athens Jazz Festival
Sunday, Sept. 6 @ Georgia Center for Continuing Education
Trey Wright
Rescheduled and retooled following the tragic passing of local jazz bassist Carl Lindberg, the Athens Jazz Festival returns to the Georgia Center Sunday. The family-friendly outdoor concert features music from six Athens- and Atlanta-based acts, including the Artie Ball Swing Band, singer Mary Sigalas and her group, guitarist Trey Wright and his trio and the long-running Classic City Swing outfit. Admission to the afternoon shindig is free for all. Here’s hoping the comeback edition of this once-beloved event is a resounding success; Athens could surely use more outdoor music year-round.
