Strollin' East Johnson Street
to
Carolynn Schwartz Black
Eight fabulous bands (including a trio fronted by vocalist Carolynn Schwartz Black, pictured), six continuous hours of live music and four super-hip locations on the vibrant East Johnson Street — it's the fourth annual "jazz stroll" presented by the Greater Madison Jazz Consortium and Prime Urban Properties. From up-and-coming student musicians to stalwarts of the local jazz scene, the night promises an eclectic mix of vocal and instrumental styles all wrapped up in some of the coolest (and hottest) jams Madison has to offer. All performances are free of charge.
press release: Enjoy jazz on Johnson Street the evening of May 19 presented by the Greater Madison Jazz Symposium.
