The City of Slidell is excited to announce the complete lineup for the 24th annual Bayou Jam Fall Concert Series, featuring four free concerts and a special Veterans Day performance.
The fall series kicks off Sunday, Oct. 4, with Flow Tribe at Heritage Park. Amanda Shaw and the Cute Guys will take the stage Oct. 11, followed by Felix and Fingers Dueling Pianos on Oct. 25. The series will conclude Nov. 8 with a special Veterans Day Concert featuring the Northshore Community Orchestra at the Slidell Municipal Auditorium.
“We are excited to welcome everyone back for another great season of Bayou Jam concerts,” said Slidell Mayor Randy Fandal. “Over the last 24 years, these concerts have become a tradition, bringing family and friends together to enjoy live music right here in Slidell. I encourage everyone in our community to come out and enjoy these concerts!”
Established in 1987, the Northshore Community Orchestra is St. Tammany Parish’s only symphony orchestra where both youth and adults can embrace music as a lifelong pursuit. The orchestra is made up of musicians from Slidell and across St. Tammany Parish, the New Orleans area and southern Mississippi. Its members range from students to retirees and represent a wide variety of backgrounds, including medical professionals, engineers, military members, educators and even multi-generational families who perform together.
Under the direction of Slidell native and longtime music educator Susan Messina, the orchestra performs a wide range of music, from classical and jazz to pop, folk, movie themes and Broadway hits. The orchestra regularly performs at community events, including Some Enchanted Evening and the City of Slidell’s Holiday Concert.
