Bend, Ore. - A limited number of Series Passes for the 9th Annual BendBroadband’s Jazz at the Oxford are now available for sale online at jazzattheoxford.com or by calling 503.432.9477.

For five weekends from October through March, world-class jazz comes to Oxford Hotel Bend’s intimate jazz ballroom located in the heart of downtown Bend.

Produced by Billboard-charting jazz musician Patrick Lamb of Patrick Lamb Productions, the 2018-2019 lineup begins in October with the effortless fusion of jazz, blues and rock from Grammy winner Lee Ritenour. November’s shows feature Guitar Legends 2018, a virtuoso guitar trio made up of Dan Balmer, Dan Faehnle and John Stowell. January brings a New Year as well as beautifully timeless, intoxicating vocals from singer Kat Edmonson. In February, we welcome a groundbreaking force among the sax elite: Paul Taylor. The ninth series closes in March with the soulful, smooth Frank McComb on keys and vocals.

“Every year, our team works diligently to make BendBroadband’s Jazz at the Oxford a well-rounded experience,” said Samuel Johnson, General Manager at Oxford Hotel Bend. “Our ballroom transforms into an intimate ‘jazz club’ where incredible performers engage with our audience.” Johnson also acknowledges the support from local sponsors, without whom the series wouldn’t exist. “This series has grown over the last nine years, and we remain grateful for the unwavering support of our generous sponsors, as well as the Central Oregon community who warmly embrace our artists and sell out our series year after year.”
