Joe Gransden Big Band Christmas Playing at Spivey Hall, December 13

Here's a recipe for Christmas cheer: Take jazz trumpeter and vocalist Joe Gransden, add a 16-piece big band, some special guests and timeless tunes, and swing into the holiday spirit at Spivey Hall.

It's all happening on Saturday, Dec. 13, at 8:15 p.m.

Not long after high school, Gransden was on the road as a sideman with the big bands of Tommy Dorsey and Glenn Miller. He has since performed around the world, winning fans everywhere. A metro-Atlanta jazz scene favorite, he has recorded seven CDs, including I'll Be Home for Christmas as well as Plays and Sings, featuring Gransden with renowned jazz guitarist, Earl Klugh.

Welcome Christmas at Spivey Hall with the music of Joe Gransden's big band, (www.joegransden.com) sponsored by Hot Shoe Records (www.hotshoerecords.com) Tickets are $40.
