Spire Center for Performing Arts, Plymouth, MA

The First Plymouth Rock Assurance Jazz Festival was held at the Spire Center for Performing Arts Memorial Day Weekend, May 24-26, 2014.  Hosted by Johnny Souza, it was very successful!  The first night was sold out/standing room only, the second day was about  3/4 full and the Jazz Jam Session on Monday/Memorial Day was well attended and a lot of fun. A lot of good players/singers showed up:

Rebecca Parris Trio, BeBop Guitars and  Johnny Souza Quintet,  Amanda Carr Quintet, Greg Abate Quartet, Yasko Kubota’s Power Jazz Unit, and many other New England musicians.
