The middle of February may seem like an odd time to be thinking about a Summer music festival. However, if you’re anything like us, taking a break from our Arctic-Cold-Front reality and looking towards our 70°-temperature-cold-beer-and-live-music future sounds pretty darn good. To help get you to that Summer state of mind, you’ll be happy to know that Burlington Discover Jazz Festival will be announcing its first round of Summer performers this Wednesday, February 12th.

With heavy hitting legends such as Dave Brubeck, Trey Anastasio, and Medeski, Martin & Wood headlining in years past, we can guarantee without a doubt the lineup this year will be equally as jaw dropping. Seriously, check out this list of performers and headliners from the past 30 years – ridiculous right?

Now is also a great time to reach out and help ensure that the Discover Jazz Festival is here to stay for years to come with acts that continue to knock your socks off! Not only do you get that warm fuzzy feeling from knowing that you helped support a great event in our community, but you are also rewarded for your altruistic actions by getting first crack at tickets before they are released to the public. Visit their Membership Page for all the details and perks.

So break out those flip flops, dust off that sundress and start thinking like Summer is upon us already. Check out the Burlington Discover Jazz Festival website this Wednesday, February 12th for the first round of performers and artists, and get stoked for summer! [Editors Note: Don’t actually bust out the flip flops or sundresses quite yet, as you may turn to ice.]
