Carson City Mile High Jazz Band presenting big band music, cake Tuesday

For 16 years, Mile High Jazz Band has been playing at Carson City’s Comma Coffee, 312 S. Carson St., on the second Tuesday of every month.

Come celebrate this milestone on Tuesday, April 11, and hear big-band music with vocalist Cindee LeVal and enjoy anniversary cake at intermission. General admission is $5 at the door, and it’s free for age 18 and under.

The Mile High Jazz Band includes trumpets, trombones, saxophones, keyboard, guitar, bass, drums, and singers. They will play about twenty tunes from their ever-expanding repertoire of selections in the style of Basie, Ellington, and more contemporary composers and arrangers.

The performance is supported, in part, with public funding through the Nevada Arts Council, a state agency, and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
