Description
Join PMAC for a Shaw Brothers Memorial Concert featuring Sharon Jones. Sharon Jones has been named “Portsmouth’s Gem,” by ‘Portsmouth Spotlight Magazine’ for her many shining performances over the years at The Music Hall, Jimmy’s Jazz and Blues Club, the Seacoast Jazz Festival, and much more! She is admired and loved for her energetic, multi-dimensional vocals, whether singing a ballad, a hard jazz tune, a funky blues composition, or a ’60s rock song. A born performer, she infuses emotion into every song and draws you into the experience with her. Refreshments provided courtesy of the Edgewood Center in Portsmouth. The Shaw Brothers Memorial Series is a free local concert and event series. The events honor the legacy of Rick and Ron Shaw—beloved folk musicians and “New England’s musical ambassadors”.
