The Morristown Jazz & Blues Festival brings free music for everyone starting at 4:00pm on Friday, September 22, at the newly renovated Pioneer Park, conveniently located between Headquarters Plaza and 1776 on Morristown’s Speedwell Avenue.
The Spectrum Jazz Band comprised of Morristown High School Students will open at 4:00pm followed at 5:00pm by jazz singer and entertainer Ty Stephens. He has performed all over the world with his jazz, funk and R&B group Soul Jaazz.
Ty Stephens is followed at 6:30pm by guitar sensation Debra Devi who has been compared to Susan Tedeschi and has overcome barriers in a male dominated genre. She brings her top-notch group with whom she has been tearing up the festival circuit.
The final group on Friday night beginning at 8:00pm brings a mainstay in the Chicago blues clubs, The Downtown Charlie Brown Blues Band, whose leader hails from Morristown. In fact, singer and keyboardist Charles Brown is celebrating his 50th Reunion from Morristown High School where he sang and played trumpet in a band. He and his quartet have a unique sound as they blend Delta, New Orleans and Chicago style blues.
