I need to see a jazz show before November 26th for a school project. It is hard to find these shows online and I'm wondering if anyone knows of any kind of jazz show playing in my state soon. Thanks. To find some local jazz and swing, you just have to find the local Lindy Hoppers.
This website shows swing lessons on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Try contacting the instructors and ask where you could see a live show.

They have a sock hop on November 23rd. The music will probably be late Jump Blues and R&B from the 50's and 60's.
I hope that helps! I used to play with an upright bass player who did a jazz gig every Sunday afternoon. He was from Exeter, but played all over the state. Write to me privately, and I'll send you his email. Great guy, even better player.
For blues, check the Boston Blues Society's page. Sometimes, RI players post their gigs on there. |
