About this event

Bess Jacques & The Strays perform an eclectic mix of originals and standards, ranging in style from jazz to Americana to faux-tango-pop. The band's sound ranges from lush vocal ballads to hard-swinging instrumentals, from pensive to pulsing to pop. Bess Jacques leads the band on piano and vocals, joined Jan van Voorst van Beest on drums, Duane Edwards on bass, and Tracy McMullen on saxophone. The band plays every third Wednesday at Blue Portland Maine, and the weekly jazz jam follows at 9pm.
