FREE CONCERT! Beth Lederman and Vicki McDermitt Christmas (Scottsdale)

Need a little Christmas spirit? Join us for a joy-filled good time at Jazz for the Soul featuring Phoenix favorites, Beth Lederman, piano, and vocalist Vicki McDermitt.

These longtime friends will swing you into the Christmas season, performing your favorite holiday songs. Beth’s infectious Latin style (with Jazz con Alma) will blend rhythms of samba, salsa, swing, bossa nova, and cha-cha. Vicki’s fresh take on the holiday classics will “take you to church” and make you glad you came.

Mix in some of Phoenix’s finest musicians — Felix Sainz - bass, Emmerson Laffey - drums, and Adam Clark - sax — shake well, and serve for a memorable evening that will get you excited for the holidays! Expect a few surprises that are sure to add to the fun.

A little jazz, a little Latin, a little gospel.... a lotta fun! What could be better?
