SUMMARY:Summer Concert Series: Peter & the Master Keys
DESCRIPTION:METC’s free Summer Concert Series sponsored by the DDC is back! Enjoy a FREE night of music this summer on Fridays from 6-8pm. Bring your own chair or blanket to sit and listen to some great performances. \nOn August 4\, we’re getting jazzy with Peter & the Master Keys! Peter & the Master Keys’ music is the perfect blend of cool sophistication and rootsy soul. Specializing in American jazz and blues from the 40’s through 60’s (with a dash of rock n’ roll thrown into the mix)\, they pay homage to an earlier era of live music when real musicians played real instruments with finesse and feeling to connect to the audience. With three horns (trumpet\, tenor sax\, baritone sax) and a robust rhythm section (keys\, guitar\, upright bass\, drums)\, you might even call them a “little” big band!
