Pearl Django returns to the North City Jazz Walk August 11

Pearl Django

Back by popular demand, Pearl Django will again perform at the Easy Monkey as part of the 9th annual North City Jazz Walk on Tuesday evening, August 11.

With a performance history spanning almost two decades, Pearl Django endures as one of the most highly regarded Hot Club style groups working today. The band’s signature style is marked by pristine and dexterous string work, colors of Bal Musette, the steady pulse of rhythm guitar and an unmistakable swing that delights audiences of all musical sensibilities.

Jazz Walk is an annual volunteer-run event that features the best jazz groups in the area, in venues from NE 175th to NE 180th on 15th NE. The street is closed for the evening and becomes a strolling boulevard with music on every side.

Music starts at 7pm.

One of the most popular acts, Greta Matassa, has been moved outside to accommodate a larger audience.

Tickets for Jazz Walk are available on the website for $15. Tickets are limited and will be $20 the day of the event.

Ticket booths at each end of the street will issue bracelets that give the wearer admission to all the venues. A map shows where each site is on the street.
