I’m Lilyan Beck with the biggest and best events in the Northwest sponsored by Muckleshoot Casino Resort.
Happy Wednesday! We are halfway through the workweek so let's celebrate!
Acoustic guitarist Leo Kottke ends his two night residency at Jazz Alley tonight. Kottke has been awarded two Grammy nominations and has a Doctorate in Music Performance.
If you want even more jazz, the Olympic Rooftop Pavilion in Ballard is hosting 'Sinatra Under the Stars'. This event will take you back in time with the 'Pure Soul Band' performing some of Sinatra's top hits.
Tony Award winning musical, The Color Purple, is back on stage at the Everett Performing Arts Center. This story is based on the book and film featuring a joyous score of jazz, ragtime, gospel, and blues.
Don't forget, tomorrow is the beginning of the Seattle Cuban Dance Festival at the University of Washington. This is three days of high-intensity workshops with instructors and live percussionists, performances, live Cuban bands, and social parties.
And that’s what's going on! I'm Lilyan Beck on Northwest Newsradio.
