107.5’s smooth jazz under the stars
Wade Ford car dealership and 107.5 WJZZ FM radio station hosted their
sixth annual “Smooth Jazz Under the Stars” concert featuring
performances by Matt Marshak, Walter Beasley and Bobby Caldwell. Jazz
lovers from across the Atlanta area arrived at the Mable House Barnes
Amphitheatre with their picnic baskets in hand, prepared to enjoy an
evening of warm weather and cool jazz. Couples cuddled on their picnic
blankets and friends enjoyed each other’s company as they tapped their
feet to some of their favorite jazz tunes. With white-hot performances
from all three of the musicians and a five-minute, “diamond in the
back, sunroof top, digging the scene with a gangsta lean wooh-ooh-ooh”*
sing-along, this night of jazz redefined a great time. – jamana jamison
