Jazz Festival's Numbers Grow

The Telluride Jazz Celebration might have finally nailed down their official dates. After a couple years of moving dates to try and dodge the monsoons, rain, and cold weather... Jazz Festival hit record numbers this summer with a fabulous lineup and happy festivarians. As the pre-Phish crowd helped, this year's Jazz Celebration was still one of the most successful event in years. Hundreds flocked to Town Park to check out Jazz sensations such as Stanley Clarke, Hiromi, Dr. Lonnie Smith, Karl Denson, The Greyboy Allstars and many more.

A few showers rolled in... but the weather was ideal for spending all day in Telluride's Town Park. Check out some of the amazing photos taken from the festival (Photos: Arthur Shim)
