Friday Night Jazz: The Keith Chasin Quintet Presents Bobby Timmons

  • The Newtown Theatre 120 North State Street Newtown, PA 18940 (map)

The Keith Chasin Quintet will bring the music of Bobby Timmons to the historic Newtown Theatre on Friday, July 8 at 8 PM.

Bobby Timmons, a jazz pianist and composer from Philadelphia, became a pioneer of soul-jazz in the 50s and 60s during his time with Art Blakey and Cannonball Adderley. With songs like “Moanin” and “This Here,” he brought “Philly Soul” into the jazz tradition, cementing his legacy as one of history’s most soulful jazz pianists.

Tickets are $25 per person or $20 for theatre members. Any remaining tickets will be sold for $35 at the door on the night of the show (if available).

All seating is general admission.
