Rowan Big Band Concert
Rowan Big Band Concert at Central United Methodist, 30 Union Street N, on Saturday, May 31 at 4:00 pm, featuring an 18-member traditional community big band in the style of Glenn Miller, Count Basie, Duke Ellington and other great early twentieth-century bandleaders, home-based in Landis, North Carolina and specializing in Great American Songbook favorites and “big band swing.”
First organized in 2006, the band is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving this uniquely American style of music and sharing our appreciation of it with others. The members of the band volunteer their talents for performances, and the net proceeds from their musical performances are used to support worthwhile local charities. Donations will be accepted, but the concert is offered without charge. Invite your friends and family!
