Music on the Main Stage:

Perry Beekman – Perry is a guitarist & vocalist deeply rooted in the classic tradition of jazz. His repertoire features tunes from the Great American Songbook, many of which comprised the repertoires of such greats as Nat King Cole, Frank Sinatra and Mel Torme. The warm sound of Perry's jazz guitar beautifully complements his rich baritone voice. His music is a wonderful combination of sophistication, excitement, and fun.
