Entertainment by Bellamy Jazz

 

Bellamy Jazz has delighted Maine and New England audiences with its engaging mix of traditional jazz.  Playing music that ranges from Preservation Hall to Count Basie, Bellamy has been voted "Maine's most popular jazz band" for many years.  A six piece band, Bellamy offers instrumental virtuosity, vocals, light hearted humor, and nostalgic storytelling. It's all entertainment with the Bellamy Jazz Band.

​

We invite the greater community, families and friends to bring their own chairs, and blankets to 202 Woodfords St., and enjoy the festivities outside on the front lawn. Parking is available in the church lot. The event will be held rain or shine.

 

All are invited to this free event!
