‘2024 Jazz and Blues Festival: Honoring Music and Supporting Scholarships’

The Seaside Jazz and Blues Festival 2024 is set to take place from March 15-17 at the Seaside Convention Center in Seaside, Oregon. This three-day event will showcase the musical heritage of the area and honor the legacy of Kyle Rieger, the beloved band director of the Seaside School District.

The festival will feature sixteen bands covering jazz and blues genres, highlighting the historical significance of these music forms in Seaside. Attendees can expect live performances and interactive workshops on topics like guitar and organ/sax/drums lessons, jazz history, improvisation, and composition.

But this festival is more than just music – it’s a cause. Proceeds will go towards scholarships for students in the Seaside School District to attend band camps and acquire instruments. A special gift will also be awarded to a graduating senior pursuing music in college.

Seaside has a rich musical heritage, with iconic venues like The Bungalow Dance Hall and The Pypo Clubs hosting legendary artists. The festival aims to honor this legacy while supporting music education and appreciation in the community.

Join this musical tribute and help young musicians achieve their dreams. For more information on the festival schedule and tickets, visit the Seaside Jazz and Blues Festival website and Ticketstripe.
