Fabulous trio of Marcia Ball, Carolyn Wonderland & Shelley King showin’ their blues, gospel, CW and RnB chops. A fun, inspiring & foot stompin show.
A dynamic performance; 2 hours of nonstop music ??
Had sub guitar and bass players and didn’t miss a beat. Poorly attended. Those who didn’t come missed a master of Texas/Louisiana piano.
The entire concert was fantastic! Each band member brought their own unique style and played with such a rhythmic quality of sound that only seasoned artists and groups can execute together in such a seamless manner. Marcia Ball’s music and style truly exhibits the sounds that can only be derived from a true Louisiana native! Accolades to the entire band!
I am a fan of Marcia Ball. I have seen her perform more than once. This time the band was so loud, I and others had to leave. They drowned out the vocals and were probably damaging some people’s hearing
1st time at Jimmy’s, great room. Had a bird’s eye view of Marcia Ball from the balcony, could literally see all the amazing things she was doing on piano. Also 1st time seeing Marcia Ball. 2 hours of non stop great music. Food and drinks were good as well.
I had never heard of Marcia Ball and am not a big jazz fan. We purchased tickets as something to do on our recent trip to Portsmouth NH. We really enjoyed the performance and were taken aback at how talented the band was. The only thing we both agreed on is many of the songs sounded the same after a while. The venue was beautiful and we want to return again in the future.
Awesome show! Marcia was amazing! I forgot how talented she is on the piano! Great atmosphere in an intimate setting. Wish we could have danced! Looking forward to seeing her play again.
So disappointed that the acts and venue changed with no notice. Then the backup acts cancelled and were changed. The event seemed very disorganized and the organizers didn’t even properly communicate with venue and food vendors and venue. Overall the bands that did show up and played made a valiant effort but it definitely wasn’t what I paid for.
Berks Jazz fest screwed up the scheduling without telling the ticket holders.
