Natalie Gandy, Vocalist, and Friends 4 Live with Paul Reitz on guitar, Bill Brott playing bass, and John DeBellevue on piano, offer up a stellar selection of Jazz music for you.
Steve’s Wine Bar is a relaxed and fun venue for friends to meet for great wine and beer by the glass, by the bottle, as well as cigars to-go.
Sunday, Nov. 10:

- Cassandra Berry and Mark Graham are back at Sweetwater Grill & Tavern, 115 S. Elm St., singing uplifting songs that bring our community together. Join us from 1-2 PM for Denton’s beloved Sweetwater Sunday Gospel Hour. Jimmy and James will have a delicious buffet to feed your bodies, while Cassandra and Mark’s music will feed your souls! Reservations HIGHLY recommended (940) 484-2888.
Marshall Smith’s BRAZZ – the all-brass Jazz quintet – plays rich, mellow standards at Armadillo Ale Works at 221 S. Bell Avenue, from 5:30 to 7:30PM. No cover charge. Fine to bring your own lawn chair and/or food!

Armadillo Ale Works offers a variety of their own craft beers(some of which are only $3!) and sodas, as well as offering coffee, chips, and snacks. Patrons are also allowed to bring in outside meal.
