What a night it will be!
Drinking, Dining & Dancing: The Amelia Island Jazz Festival’s annual Valentine’s Day weekend, Big Band Bash will be held Saturday, February 11, 2023, 7:00 – 10:00 PM, in the Main Ballroom at the Courtyard by Marriott, 2700-2 Atlantic Avenue in Fernandina Beach featuring local resident Les DeMerle’s 15-Piece Jazz Orchestra and his wife, vocalist Bonnie Eisele. The event, which includes a gourmet meal and a silent auction, will feature classic big band arrangements by Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman and more. “Also, we’ll be paying homage to my old boss, bandleader and trumpeter Harry James, with whom I worked 12 years,” said renowned drummer DeMerle.
