Jazz, jazz and more jazz is scheduled for Christmas at the Shed, an annual swingin’ party for the holidays at the Drying Shed featuring the Bay Area’s beloved A Touch of Brass Big Band. The 18-piece orchestra brings private, corporate and community shows to Northern California with enough brass to make a grown man cry. The band is known for winning over fans everywhere they go: from tech company networking events to east side backyard bashes. A Touch of Brass spins tunes for a great time, and this year’s show is expected to dazzle.
