Norah Jones at The Vets
Norah Jones returns to RI on Thursday, December 8th for a solo show after spending a couple of weekends here this summer when she played both Newport Folk and Newport Jazz. She’s got a chart topping new album, the jazz influenced Day Breaks, a release that also has a nice cross-over appeal. It’s one of the premiere shows of the holiday season and we hope you already have tickets - late word is that only scattered single seats remain. Details for The Vets show here.
