“This Second Wave of artists is so indicative of the exciting direction we're building towards with this year's Newport Jazz lineup – artists like BADBADNOTGOOD and Grace Kelly represent the innovative spirit that is alive and well in jazz, while Tony Allen and The DIVA Jazz Orchestra prove Newport is THE place for the top jazz talent,” said Jay Sweet, Executive Producer of Newport Festivals Foundation. “Add to that, the double dose of Pat Metheny and José James, who both will perform Friday night at the Casino and Saturday at the Fort, this is shaping up to be a lineup for the ages.”
