For this July 4th weekend, the band and Jennifer will perform a mix of patriotic music and standards with tributes to our favorite cities.

Altadena's own Jennifer Gates will sing the danceable hits of Frank Sinatra, Nat Cole, Ella Fitzgerald and several others. All in all, a night of dance music and "standards" from "The Great American Song Book"!

Jennifer will be accompanied by Altadena’s own Down Beat Express a seventeen piece big band performing their own arrangements of swing era standards and truly “blasts from the past” big band hits. Pat Emmett is the music director. 
 
So join us and celebrate our Nation’s 238th Birthday and "let's Dance"!
