Funk Rush offers an intense mix of old school funk, rock, occasionally reggae and jazz. Borne out of the long-term musical relationship between Scott Newell and Reggie Dennis, together they've amassed a unique blend of original and stylized covers. "Jazz is the teacher, Funk is the preacher!"
We’ll also have the JazzArts Youth All-Stars to showcase the future stars of jazz right here in Charlotte. This group includes Gustavo Cruz, Samuel David, & Olivia Ratliff
Food trucks will be on hand for all of your refreshment needs while enjoying the music – KIckin Kitchen American favorites, Potbelly BBQ, Hip Hop Smoothies, and Resident Culture Brewing. Some chairs will be available – you are encouraged to bring your own if desired.
