AUGUSTA — The Concerts at Jewett series, sponsored by University of Maine at Augusta College of Arts and Sciences and UMA Senior College, will present Boogie 2 Shooz at 2 p.m. Sunday in Jewett Hall Auditorium.

A release from the university describes the concert as follows:

Boogie 2 Shooz took shape as an electro acoustic duo in the early 1990s. Boogie 2 Shooz members Pamela Jenkins and Patti-Jean Cousens are singers and instrumentalists who share a commitment to foster and perpetuate the work of women in music, while always serving their audience with diverse musical styles laced with knee-slapping fun.

Boogie 2 Shooz combines saxophones, flute, percussion and keyboards with music technology to create a full ensemble sound. They bring torch ballads, fiery and soulful renditions of the blues, funk-flavored R&B, lush jazz and spirited Latin to every performance

From USO work, festivals and cruise ships, to hometown lounges and concert venues, Boogie 2 Shooz’ tenure as entertainers allows them to touch a broad mix of ages and musical tastes.

Tickets cost $10 for adults or $5 for students. Children age 12 and younger get in free. Tickets are available at Pat’s Pizza in Augusta, Apple Valley Books in Winthrop, and at the door.
