Time flies as we get ready for this exciting event. Be sure to catch all the incredible performances, from the legendary Chucho Valdés to the amazing local talent that embodies the spirit of the Silver Spring Jazz Fest.
Two local key figures, Paul Carr and Marcus Johnson, have been driving the music and energy of the festival since its inception. Paul Carr, an award-winning saxophonist and dedicated jazz educator, and Marcus Johnson, leading Crank + Flo with a blend of jazz and go-go, capture the heart of our community's vibrant jazz scene.
Also, don’t miss Feedel Band, bringing an Ethiopian jazz sound that merges 1960s R&B and funk with traditional Ethiopian scales, and the Todd Marcus Quintet, featuring the unique bass clarinet artistry of Todd Marcus. Each performance adds to the diverse and rich musical experience that makes this festival special. Mark your calendars and join us next week for a celebration of jazz that truly represents the spirit of Silver Spring!
