Join Clear Blue Soul & ConnectFairfield at the 2nd Annual Jim Jam ☘️ to support the Jimmy McGrath #7 Foundation.

Great night of fun, friendship, music & support to honor the life of Jimmy McGrath!!

Based in Fairfield County, Clear Blue Soul brings a fusion of rock, blues, funk, and soul that together form a cohesive five piece unit that has been the hit of the bar, charity, and private event scene for the last few years.  

Drawing on a collection of well-known covers that gets the crowd off their feet, the band is not afraid to put their spin on some lesser known modern cuts - the soon to be classics, as well. Fans can expect songs ranging from the The Grateful Dead, The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac to Tedeschi Trucks, No Doubt, and Lake Street Dive. Clear Blue Soul crosses genres and decades to deliver a fun night of danceable music.

Clear Blue Soul consists of Keri O'Connor (vocals), Dave Fowler (guitar/vocals), Mark Searles (bass), Bill Valus (lead guitar), and Eric Wuchiski (drums). All are veteran musicians who bring their own style and music tastes to the group to the collective benefit of the audience

A portion proceeds from this event will benefit the Jimmy McGrath Foundation.
