The Haywood County Arts Council and the Haywood County Public Libraries are proud to announce the Friends of the Library Concert Series concert, “One Leg Up,” on Saturday, Aug. 18, at 3 p.m. in the auditorium of the Waynesville branch library.

Based in Asheville, One Leg Up performs a vibrant mixture of upbeat Gypsy Jazz, Latin, Swing and original jazz compositions, and is a favorite of concert and festival goers throughout the southeastern United States. Over the years, One Leg Up has broadened its repertoire to include fresh arrangements of Django classics, vocal harmonies, original compositions, and innovative adaptations of classic jazz numbers in the French “hot club” and American “big band” styles. Now more than just a Django band, their latest recording “Pere La Chaise” is a music mix that is danceable and accessible. One Leg Up continues to attract a growing, varied, and enthusiastic fan base with music that always swings.

This FOLCS concert is approximately one hour long and is free to the public. All are welcome and encouraged to attend!
