On Saturday, the Oak Ridge Civic Music Association (ORCMA) will present an afternoon of timeless tunes and vocal talent at Sing & Swing, featuring the Oak Ridge Chorus, Swing Time Big Band, and Oak Ridge High School Chorus.
The free outdoor concert will take place at 4 p.m. Sept. 28 at the Oak Ridge Civic Center band shell.
Local singers and musicians will highlight swing and jazz standards, including beloved hits like “It Don’t Mean a Thing (If It Ain’t Got That Swing),” “Boogie Woogie,” and more, celebrating the golden era of swing music with live harmonies and bold brass, a news release said.
It will also feature a new composition by local musician Wendel Werner.
Attendees are encouraged to bring blankets or lawn chairs for seating − and an umbrella just in case.
Food and drink will be available for purchase from Zeeke & Nells BBQ, Razzleberry’s Ice Cream Lab and SnoBiz SnoCones. Bring your umbrella in case it rains.
