The Driveway Jazz Series is featuring four concerts in August and now there’s even more music to enjoy with their sister series at the Lincoln Street United Methodist Church, 5145 SE Lincoln St.
The Driveway Jazz Series is funded by the Regional Arts and Culture Council and the Concerts at Lincoln Street are funded by the PDX Events Action Table.
The first two Fridays (August 5 and 12) feature the Cheryl Alex Trio (flutist-vocalist Alex with Dan Gaynor on keyboards and Brent Follis on drums) and the George Colligan Quartet (pianist Golligan is joined by john Nastos on saxophone, bassist Eric Gruber and drummer Michael Raynor), respectively.
The middle of the month has back-to-back shows. The Adam Carlson Quartet with trumpeter Justin Copeland Quartet start the weekend Friday, August 19 and the next night is the Concerts at Lincoln Street’s only August performance with the Kareen Kandi World Orchestra.
Vocalist Sherry Alves and pianist Cassio Vianna wrap up the month Friday, August 26 with their bossa nova and Brazilian standards.
All shows start at 4 pm. More information and live streaming at facebook.com/drivewayjazz/events.
