For one weekend, Birch Street in downtown Brea will be filled with improvisation, syncopation, and forceful rhythm–that is, jazz music. The free festival will have different sets of musicians performing each day of the weekend, and, on Sunday, three-time Orange County Music Award winner Nancy Sanchez, blues-and-roots group Crosstown 2, and R&B and jazz trio DW3 will be taking the stage. In between sets, check out the beer and wine garden or grab something to eat from the surrounding restaurants. If you have kids, there’ll be water activities, face painting, and an obstacle course for them, too (‘cause how many of us know kids who like jazz?).
