I wanted to take a minute to let you know that the WJE will be performing at Cottage Lake Park, Woodinville, WA at 7 PM on Thursday 28 June and at the Ballard Locks, Ballard, WA at 2 PM on Saturday 30 June. I wish many of my worldwide readers and friends could be there. However if you want to take a quick listen we have some recordings here.
We have added a number killer and classic jazz charts to our set list. Our director has been hard at work finding charts to both challenge us and hopefully, interest the crowd.
