(JACKSON TOWNSHIP, NJ) -- Take yourself back to an era when folks gathered around a bandstand on a balmy summer evening. Fred Lehotay and the Ragtimers will evoke sweet memories during their performance at the Ocean County Library Jackson Branch on Wednesday, July 10, 2024. The event begins at 7:00pm.
Sing along or tap your toes while the band whisks you back to the “Roaring ‘20s” with patriotic songs, Jazz Age melodies and rollicking ragtime tunes.
Saxophonist Fred Lehotay, guitarist Bob Estler, banjoist Tom Rittenhouse and bassist Gary Nokes have performed rousing ragtime and sentimental favorites since 1968. Fans view the group’s videos on YouTube.
