Summer jazz class instructor Clay Nordhill has assembled a quartet of talented local musicians to present a concert marking the class's last meeting, and all LLC members are invited to attend. An accomplished jazz guitarist and composer, Clay is a graduate of URI with a focus on Jazz Performance. He has performed at the Newport Jazz Festival as well as at venues throughout the Northeast and has spent much of the last two years on tour, first with the national company of Annie and currently with Mrs. Doubtfire.
