Some of the hottest names in jazz will be playing along the banks of the Mississippi River in Alton at the inaugural Alton Jazz & Wine Fest celebrating Miles Davis.

Keyon Harrold, the Funky Butt Brass Band, the Dawn Weber Group and the Ptah Williams Quartet will take the stage at the Liberty Bank Alton Amphitheater.

This is a free event although a VIP experience is available.
