The Concord Band Holiday Pops with Jerry Seeco

CONCORD, MA — Celebrate the season in Big Band style at the Concord Band's annual Holiday Pops concerts, to be held at 51 Walden St., Concord on Friday, December 8th and Saturday, December 9th at 8pm. The snow date for both nights is Sunday, December 10th at 2pm. The cabaret-style concerts will feature both traditional and original holiday music.

Boston's own Jerry Seeco will perform with the Concord Band and lead the audience holiday sing-along. Jerry is an incredibly prolific musician — vocalist, arranger, teacher and performer on trumpet, flugelhorn and flute and alto flute. He has taught at Berklee for more than 20 years and appears regularly with the Paradise Big Band in Key West, the Worcester Jazz Orchestra and the Tito Puente Tribute Band. He has performed with Aretha Franklin, Neil Sedaka, Wayne Newton, Della Reese, Leslie Gore and many more. He has shared jazz stages with such artists as Arturo Sandoval, Chick Corea, Jon Faddis, Bobby Shew, Gary Burton and Jacki Bayrd. The Band is truly delighted to include some of Jerry's newest arrangements on this year's program, and to spotlight his artistry as both an instrumental and vocal soloist.

The Concord Band Holiday Pops is a tradition in Concord and sells out early. Table seating is available at $20 per person, $15 for children under 12. Ticket prices includes beverages and snacks.
