Summertime jazz is happening again at the Westgate Hotel up on the pool deck, and while this isn’t blues (as a rule), Whitney Shay will be singing there on Friday night before her quartet plays next door later on at the US Grant.

For those of you who love to swing dance to blues…  this week we have lots of swinging blues around the downtown.  Tuesday night at Humphrey’s and at Henry’s Pub, and Wednesday night at Tio Leo’s.
