Jazzy Ash & the Leaping Lizards : Melissa & Doug Children's Series

Wed, Aug 17, 7pm | FREE | OUTDOORS | Melissa & Doug Children's Series | A jazzy music adventure for the whole family!

Levitt Pavilion for the Performing Arts, 40 Jesup Rd, Westport, CT

Jazzy Ash invites the whole family to come along on a Crescent City inspired, jazzy music adventure with her band the Leaping Lizards. Jazzy Ash’s songs celebrate the magic of movement, with a lot of sugar and sass thrown in, New Orleans –style. Her latest album, Bon Voyage features gypsy jazz, zydeco, swing, blues, and Dixieland to encourage kids and their grown-ups to celebrate the music of New Orleans as part of the American folk music heritage.

Jazzy Ash’s cover of the Louis Armstrong classic “Heebie Jeebies” is the #1 song on SiriusXM Kids Place Live radio, and NPR’s All Things Considered calls Jazzy Ash “one of the most talked about children’s music artist this year”.

Presented by the Levitt Pavilion as part of our Melissa & Doug Children's Series! Every Wednesday, kids rock and rule at the Levitt Pavilion! Kids are welcome to visit the Melissa & Doug Hospitality tent for kids and enjoy complimentary face-painting for kids (while supplies last)! On-site activities begin at 6.

Note: Lawn & Concession open to the public one hour before show-time. Facility is closed to public during load-in and sound-check. Picnics are welcome. The Levitt Pavilion and its perimeter is a non-smoking area. Pets are not allowed.
