Earlier this month, elite jazz drummer Ralph Peterson and The Messenger Legacy Online Project recorded two sets live in Old Lyme's Side Door Jazz Club.

Observing COVID safety precautions, no audience was allowed. But: Starting at 7:30 Friday through 10:30 p.m. Sunday, folks can stream either or both shows as often as they want for a one-time ticket price of $10 for each set.

Peterson was joined by a different front-line horn section for each performance, so the material and players offer fresh dynamics and chemistry. Tickets are available now from Eventbrite.com. For more information go to oldlymeinn.com.
