The Bethesda Blues & Jazz Youth Orchestra is excited to announce our 2nd annual "Young Artist Series" concert featuring guitarist Jackson Dunkin! The concert will feature the BBJYO performing iconic songs such as Dave Brubeck's "Take Five," "The Jeep is Jumpin'" by Johnny Hodges and Duke Ellington, Roberta Flack's "You'll Never Know," and the funky "Mr. Dynamite" by DC's own Ben Williams. Our featured guest, Jackson, will perform a few tunes with the orchestra and also present his own quartet set.
