The Jazz and June Board of Directors would like send out a big "Thank You" to all who made this year's festival a success, including our many hard working volunteers, our generous donors, and all those who attended some or all of the shows. Yes, it was hot out there...but so was the music.

Concerts from NPR Music: Tom Waits (Saturday, July 4 from 1am - 2am)
NPR Music presents Tom Waits in concert at Atlanta's historic Fox Theater, recorded on July 5, 2008. Waits delivers a stunning performance, including songs he says he's never attempted to play outside of the studio before. Backing Waits is a five-piece group, featuring Seth Ford-Young (upright bass), Patrick Warren (keyboards), Omar Torrez (guitars), Vincent Henry (woodwinds) and Casey Waits (drums and percussion). "They play with racecar precision and they are all true conjurers," according to Waits. "They are all multi-instrumentalists and they polka like real men."
