Bill Allred’s Classic Jazz Band


The “Little Big Band”

Thursday, September 18th, 2008 at 7:30pm

only $20

From traditional jazz to classic swing, a Classic Jazz Band concert is an exciting tour through the history of jazz. You will hear everything from Jelly Roll Morton to Count Basie, from early trad to hard core swing and all the stops in between. Celebrating its 19th year, the “little big band” uses the 5 horn front line typical of such bands as Matty Matlock, Billy Maxted, Red Nichols, and the World’s Greatest Jazz Band to create that glorious big band sound. Always a Mainstay favorite!

Home of Musical Magic!

Located in a 100 year old building on Main Street, The Mainstay is a cultural and artistic center for Rock Hall, a historic “waterman’s” town on the Upper Eastern Shore of the Chesapeake Bay. The town’s healthy mix of locals and newcomers give it a vitality and hometown feeling that is hard to beat.

The Mainstay is a warm friendly place with great sound and sight lines. With only 120 seats, there’s not a bad one in the house. It’s a listening room that’s almost as comfortable as your living room. Beer, wine and soft drinks are available. Our audiences range from local Rock Hallers to those who find their way here from Philadelphia, Annapolis, Baltimore, Washington DC and beyond.

The Mainstay offers more than 40 concerts a year. You can hear great jazz, blues, classical, folk …almost any form you enjoy. Check out “Performances” to see what’s coming up and here to see a list of some of our past performers.

So, come and see us in Rock Hall… our town motto is “nice people live here” and you’ll find a whole group of those people right here at The Mainstay!
