Vocalist Alexandra Jackson stopped by The S.O.U.L. of Jazz to talk with Jamal Ahmad about Friday night's WCLK At 50 performance at Atlanta Symphony Hall, the City of Atlanta Mayor's Office of Cultural Affairs official kickoff of this year's Atlanta Jazz Festival. A few tickets remain to this event, available by clicking here.
Jackson is part of the ensemble of Atlanta Jazz artists who will gather to celebrate the station that we love. Poet and playwright Jon Goode will narrate the show with tidbits of WCLK’s history, and DJ Kermit will hype the crowd. Trumpeter Melvin Jones is the show’s big band music arranger. “WCLK at 50″ will take listeners on a musical journey that will include jazz classics from the 1930s to today — songs from I Got Rhythm and Take The A Train to Maiden Voyage, Dominoes, Everybody Loves The Sunshine and more.
Get your tickets and be there for an epic night. Tickets to WCLK At 50 at Symphony Hall on Friday, May 24 at 8pm at ticketmaster.
