Atlanta Jazz Festival 2014

From the venue:

This weekend marks the return of Atlanta Jazz Festival and, as always, the event boasts a lineup of marquee acts from around the globe, including trumpeter Roy Hargrove, French singer Cyrille Aimée, Bill Frisell’s Guitar in the Space Age, and legendary pianist Ahmad Jamal, among many more. But this year, along with the out-of-town roster of musicians, the festival also shines a spotlight on local talent in a bigger way than ever before. Case in point: Several high-profile hometown performers are set to take the Main Stage and, for the first time in the event’s 37-year history, attendees will be able to catch a bevy of up-and-coming Atlantans on the newly added Locals Stage.
