Sacramento's Jazz Festival Jubilee offers 24 venues with about 70 bands, including a few dozen internationally-known all-stars. 

Here are some snapshots from the 37th Annual Sacramento Jazz Festival & Jubilee!

There are two photos of a young man playing harmonica. He is Kyle Roland, 14 years old. Here is some info about him:

Kyle Roland was "discovered by Mick Martin (Mick Martin and the Blues Rockers • Sacramento) at the Jubilee four years ago at the ripe old age of ten as he was playing along on his 'harp' during one of Mick's shows. Mick heard him and had him come up on stage to play along and was taken aback not just at his ability to play a harp like it's on fire but at his incredible timing. Four years later, after sitting in with several blues greats and being taken under Mick's wing, Kyle, at fourteen years old is an incredible talent and a performer with the stage skills of a seasoned professional. The combination of his natural ability and the guidance of Mick have paid off well, for sure.

This young dude is absolutely unbelievable.(info from Mick Martin's website)
