CONGRATULATIONS Julius Rodriguez -- Finalist, JAZZ, 2014 YoungArts
Many of you have seen him at Hastings Station Cafe jamming with the Hastings Jazz Collective and also on YouTube (see below). We will be taking field trips to other places to see him as gigs come up. Sadly, the Rivertowns Jazz Blog cannot go to Florida for the week of Arts and Youth, but there is an opportunity to enjoy this celebration of talent, hard work, joy and positivity online. www.youngarts.org
Congratulations, Julius! Your kind of orange is my kind of Vitamin C!
