Nova Tonight, and Upcoming Radio Broadcast

Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

The Nova Contemporary Jazz Orchestra plays our regular gig tonight at O’ Gara’s, 8pm-11pm. Plus, our recent—and completely friendly—Battle of Big Bands foray with Acme Jazz Company will be broadcast on Jazz88’s Big Band Scene on March 22nd and 28. Tune in! (We’ll remind you again.)

If you came out to our recent show with Acme Jazz Company at Minnetonka High, thanks for your support. We sincerely hope you enjoyed the music. In the next battle, we hope to work in marshmallow bazookas in some way.

Nova's Here, too:
