On Sunday, June 8 from 4–6pm, East Rock Creek Village is hosting a live jazz concert at the Marketplace Plaza at The Parks at Walter Reed. The event will feature jazz singer and native Washingtonian James Keith Zimmerman accompanied by a five-piece band. Steeped in the time-honored tradition of the great jazz vocalists, Zimmerman’s voice has been described as like that of a horn, and his performances are presented in an original, authentic style. He evokes the spirit of the masters who have inspired him—artists such as Jon Hendricks, Oscar Brown Jr., Sarah Vaughan, Eddie Jefferson, Bill Henderson, Frank Sinatra, Miles Davis, and Al Jarreau. Zimmerman’s repertoire includes the best of jazz standards, blues, bebop, swing, Broadway musicals, and Bossa Nova.

The concert will take place at The Parks at Walter Reed Marketplace Plaza (Georgia Avenue & Dahlia Street NW) across the street from the new Whole Foods Market. Seating and light refreshments will be available. Parking is available on nearby streets or in the Whole Foods Market garage (enter on Dahlia St) with a validated ticket.
