Partnership also brings live jazz for Sunday Brunch at Terra Verde Italian Cuisine
Green Valley Ranch resort is celebrating summer by bringing the great sounds of jazz by popular local and national jazz performers to one of the hippest summer hot spots in town: the resort's backyard pool. Green Valley Ranch resort has partnered with Smooth Jazz 105.7 FM "The Oasis" along with 10 Cane Rum, to bring a free poolside summer jazz series to the Green Valley Ranch pool every Wednesday from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. In addition to the weekly series, Smooth Jazz 105.7 FM jazzes up a new Sunday brunch at Terra Verde Italian Cuisine inside Green Valley Ranch with live music, every Sunday from 10:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., featuring music by Calvin Brooks.
The pool area at Green Valley Ranch is the ideal spot for summertime jazz. Offering a delicious snack bar, lounge chairs and a variety seating and cabana options, patrons will be able to relax and enjoy the cool jazz sounds. Following is the May/June calendar:
· May 21, Color Coated Brown
· May 28, The Release All Stars
