BAM gets BAMKids Music Series off to a jazzy start

BAM opens its BAMkids Music series with two performances by Jojo and the Pinecones on Nov. 4 at the BAM Peter Jay Sharp Building.

The local group brings jazz to the family audience. Known for its distinctive “jazzed-up pop and popped-up jazz” style, the kindie jazzsters perform playful, swinging tunes centered around Joelle Lurie’s bold, smooth vocals.

The concert includes selections from their first kid-focused album, “Night and Day,” which comprises original songs and reimagined jazz standards structured around the course of a day. Encouraging mindfulness and gratitude. For children 4 to 8 years old.

Jojo and the Pinecones, Nov. 4, 10:30 am and 2:30 pm; tickets are $10.
