The Making Noise in the Library series brings artists into library spaces for free performances. Come join us in the groovy atmosphere of the Robertson Media Center on the 3rd floor of Clemons Library.

The Dale Avenue Band brings hot club-style jazz,1930’s pop standards, and stylish original compositions to life. Originating from informal jams in the summer of 2022, the band often holds their weekly sessions outdoors in the parking lot of the Front Porch Music School, bringing a festive atmosphere to Charlottesville’s Dale Avenue neighborhood. George Davis and Pete Vigour (guitars), Kristin Hauge (violin), Jim Howe (drums), Dan Sebring (lap steel and violin), and Susan Weiner (string bass) approach their music in the spirit of fun and adventure, and the enjoyment of learning from each other!
