Grace Kelly comes to Salem

With all of the haunted houses and ghostly stories in Salem, I wouldn't be half surprised to learn that Grace Kelly, Princess of Monaco, was seen in town.  This, however, is a musical, cultural blog post, and this Grace Kelly is a saxophonist phenom. 

The 19-year old saxophonist, singer, songwriter, and composer performs a mix of standards and original works with her quintet. Kelly is the 2011 Boston Music Awards “Jazz Artist of the Year” and is the youngest person to be named to the Downbeat Critics Poll’s “Rising Stars.”  Tickets are: $20 general/$15 non-Salem State students and seniors.

Monday, October 3, 7:30 pm.
The Grace Kelly Quintet
