2nd Steve Martin Show Sells Out

Xerox Rochester Int'l Jazz Festival

Similar to what happened the last time Steve Martin and his bluegrass music came to Rochester,  two shows have now sold out at the Xerox Rochester International Jazz Festival.

Martin will be at the festival at Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre on June 21st.  The first show that went on sale earlier this month sold out within minutes. A second show was added this week, and tickets went on sale Friday at 10:00 a.m. They sold out in about three hours.

Martin is appearing with the bluegrass band Steep Canyon Rangers and singer Edie Brickell.

Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers performed two sold-out shows at the festival last time they played here in 2012.

The jazz festival runs from June 20th to the 28th. For more information go to rochesterjazz.com
