The Yonkers Downtown/Waterfront (BID) will host its sixth concert in its Jazz and Blues at Dusk series Friday, August 9 at 6:30 pm. Kenny Lee & The All-Stars’ soulful sounds will have everyone on their feet at the Yonkers Waterfront amphitheater. “Music is a great way to bring people together, and that is what we strive to do when choosing the acts for our Jazz and Blues at Dusk concert series,” said Dan Lipka, Executive Director of the Yonkers Downtown Waterfront BID. “Kenny Lee & The All-Stars have earned the respect of jazz musicians across Westchester County, Connecticut and in New York City. Lee has played with a variety of jazz professionals and appeared at many clubs and restaurants throughout the tri-state area.”
Kenny Lee & The All-Stars bring rhythm and soul to true jazz and blues lovers. The leader of the band, Kenny Lee, is a retired White Plains police officer who has played the trumpet his entire life. With the help of his ‘‘All-Stars,’’ Lee shares his trumpet talents with those who want to get down and groove.
The event is sponsored by the Yonkers Downtown Waterfront Business Improvement District (BID) and this performance will be the sixth one in the series.
