• July 27, 2003 - The GJB was joined at the RiverRun by members of Paris Washboard for an exceptionally exciting evening of hot jazz with a standing-room-only crowd.
     
  • June, 2003 and 2004 - We enjoyed perfect weather on the last weekend of June in 2003 and 2004, performing at the Hot Steamed Jazz Festival in Essex. Hot Steamed Festival Photos... One of the highlights of the Hot Steamed festival was 8-year-old jazz violinist Jonathan Russell, who sat in with us at our final set there. On the Saturdays of both weekends we performed at Music Mountain in Falls Village. Apparently the famous Vigorito Voodoo was working; it was the first weekend without rain in quite a while.
     
  • June 8 and 15, 2003 - The GJB enjoyed standing-room-only crowds for its first two nights at the RiverRun (formerly the Millpond Tavern) with Jane Campedelli. We were thrilled to see so many dear friends and loyal fans turn out for the occasion. Kim Steffen is to be congratulated for all the work she has done, rebuilding our old home and bringing it into the 21st century.
     
  • April 27, 2003 - Although we enjoyed good crowds at the Chowderpot in Branford every Sunday evening for seven years, the management decided that our services are no longer needed. Our final performance there on April 27 was a big night, attended by loyal fans from as far away as Massachusetts and North Carolina. The Chowderpot (203-481 2356) was a wonderful home for the GJB; perhaps someday we can return. Photos from the Chowderpot Farewell...
