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.
