The Jumboree Players In Town For Two Shows

Reader Blanko Dave wrote in to tell me about two shows that The Jumboree Players will be performing in Phoenixville. The first will be held on Friday, June 6th at EarthMart. The show starts at 6:30 and will go until at least 9:30. The second will be held Sunday, August 3rd at the Colonial Theatre. Showtime for that one starts at 1pm and will go until ~ 2pm at which time the Colonial will be showing Easy Rider.

Blanko Dave describes the shows as such:
---
The band is The Jumboree Players. It's a musical collective, more or less. We are a band from South Philly that has about 15 members, and we play many styles of music... rock, pop, blues, country, jazz, and soul, on many different instruments.

For the EarthMart show it will be 6:30 to around 9:30, possibly later depending on the crowd. The show will be primarily acoustic instruments.

For The Colonial Theatre, the band will play an hour of electric late-60's music starting at 1:00, and the movie Easy Rider gets shown at 2:00 (it's the Sunday Classic that day).

Dave also sent a review from a show they did last year which can be read here.
