ALAMOSA — The Alamosa Live Music Association is providing free live music in Cole Park with its Sundays at Six concert series.  

The SLV Big Band concert is scheduled for Sunday, August 17, at 6 p.m. This local favorite will bring their powerhouse of sound, which brings the golden age of jazz roaring back to life. Check them out at www.facebook.com/groups/slvbigband/.  

The SLV Big Band isn’t just a really big jazz band—they’re the real deal. Dedicated to making the Rockies swing, this all-volunteer nonprofit ensemble is on a mission to bring big band jazz back in a big way. Hailing from all walks of life—think music directors, doctors, lawyers, and maybe even your neighbor—the band blends talent, passion, and a touch of brass to light up stages across Southern Colorado and Northern New Mexico. From toe-tapping classics to rich historical storytelling, the band is here to keep the rhythm alive and the valley buzzing—one syncopated rhythm at a time. 

This is the second-to-last show, so be sure not to miss it. Also, make sure to grab your dinner and sweet treat from Tacos Martinez and Frosty Acres Rolled Ice Cream, whose food trucks will be on-site at each concert this summer. ALMA will once again be collecting food items for the Alamosa Food Pantry; please bring your non-perishable donations.
