DAMARISCOTTA — The Novel Jazz Septet will continue its eighth year of performances at Skidompha Library on Main Street with a show from 7 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. June 28.

“Skidompha’s Novel Jazz evenings were conceived around the observation that lovers of books often are lovers of jazz,” a release from the septet states. “Moreover, the superb acoustics of Skidompha’s atrium, plus the seating ‘in the round,’ make it a great place to see and hear the performance, all in a relaxed, informal atmosphere.”

Vocalist Tracey MacLean, a professional jazz vocalist for more than 30 years, will accompany the ensemble on June 28.

Novel Jazz Septet members include Barney Balch (trombone), Herb Maine (acoustic bass), Mickey Felder (piano), Bruce Boege (saxophone) and Billy Friederich (drums).

Admission is $13 for adults, $10 for seniors, $5 for young adults between 12 and 18 years old, and free for attendees younger than 12 if accompanied by a parent.
