The TD Halifax Jazz Festival announces the complete performance lineup for the shows at St. Matthew’s United Church, The Carleton, and Joseph Strug Concert Hall. Executive Director of Jazz East Rising Association says this year they’re launching a St. Matt’s Pass for the first time. “These shows are some of our most highly anticipated performances and sell out quickly,” says Andrea. “This year’s St. Matt’s, The Carleton, and Strug Hall shows really highlight the local jazz scene and we feel the concertgoers will enjoy the intimate atmosphere these venues provide.”
