Celebrate summer, music and libraries at free concerts hosted across the Whatcom County Library System. At each event, discover what’s new at local libraries and join neighbors in a joyous evening of live music. 

We're keeping up the tradition of bringing quality jazz to Ferndale. Jack Radsliff and his band will perform in the main space of the library from 7-8pm. Find a seat among the bookshelves and groove with fellow fans of jazz and libraries.

As a bandleader, Jack’s group is a fixture at clubs and festivals throughout the region, including The 1905, Seattle Jazz Fellowship, PDX Jazz Fest, Mt Hood Jazz Fest, Little Big Fest, and Anacortes Arts. His records, Migration Patterns (2017), Barefoot (2024), and Living/Live (2025), have all been well received; the first two making it onto critics' “best of” lists and the latter being called “one of the best albums to come out of Portland’s jazz scene so far this year” (Willamette Week).

Seats are limited; registration is required. Reserve your seats now! 

The Whatcom Grooves Summer Concert Series is generously supported by the Whatcom County Library Foundation and the Friends of the Ferndale Library. Financial donations to support local libraries are gratefully accepted at the concerts.
