JOSA or Jazz On a Sunday Afternoon (a Wightsteeple Production) is one of New England’s premier performing jazz series. For the past 30 years, JOSA Events have featured internationally renowned jazz artists who tour annually throughout the U.S. and abroad. The list of featured artists has included jazz musicians the likes of Rebecca Parris, Shawnn Monteiro, Greg Abate, Donna Byrne, Giacomo Gates, Nancy Kelly, Dan Moretti and Greta Matassa, to name a few.

Singer, songwriter, educator and impresario, Nancy Kelly’s five-decade career has honed her trademark swing/bop, take-no-prisoners, soulful, swinging style in front of audiences across the U.S. and abroad. Inducted into the Rochester Music Hall of Fame in 2022, Kelly appears regularly in New York City, at such hallowed venues as The Blue Note, Birdland, and The Rainbow Room. She was twice named “Best Female Jazz Vocalist” in the Down Beat Readers’ Poll and is sure to feed your jazz holiday hunger this Sunday!

Joining Kelly this performance are members of the JOSA Ensemble including Bill Wightman on piano; Bruce Gertz on bass; Greg Mostovoy on saxophones; and Tim Gilmore on percussion.

Please bring your own picnic to enjoy as you listen to the music.
