FTJ Summer Concerts Are Back This Month!

By Christine Hall

Thanks to a generous resident donor summer concerts are back at FTJ!

Concerts will be every Thursday night in August at 6:30pm in front of the Care Center. If you are not a FTJ Resident or Family Member, please bring your own chair and park off campus.

Here is the line up:

Parlor Swing – August 3

Parlor Swing is a versatile band that merges Prohibition era Jazz, Gypsy Jazz, Swing and Jump Blues influences. Fronted by singer and guitarist Tony Serzo, the group also features Pam Greene on bass, our own FTJ Adelia Nunn on vocals and Tim Nordstrom on trumpet, guitar and vocals.

Farmstrong – August 10

Farmstrong taps deep into the roots of the bluegrass and country musical genres, as it reaches beyond the surface to a vast array of American roots based music, from folk and rock, to Motown and blues.

Anjali Silva and Sabor

Anjali Silva sings in English, Spanish and Portuguese! She and the Sabor Trio perform the best of hits from all areas of Latin America, American pop and some original music as well.

Puget Brass – August 24

Puget Brass, a British-style brass band, is composed of entirely brass and percussion instruments. Their instrumentation is also different than you might see in a concert band or orchestral brass section.

Wally & The Beaves – August 31st

Wally & The Beaves is a seven-piece fun oldies variety band that performs songs from the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s (and more). Each member of the band brings a bit of humor by dressing like well-known iconic characters from the era.
