TeJAS, short for the Texas Jazz All-Stars, will be in the Robson Ranch clubhouse ballroom on Saturday, June 24, at 6:30 p.m. for your listening pleasure. You say, “I’ve never heard TeJAS!” Yes, you have. They were previously the Keller Area Youth Jazz Orchestra. They performed twice in 2022 here at Robson Ranch. Same game, new name. Texas Jazz All-Stars is still based in Keller, but these teenage musicians come from as far away as Azle, Weatherford, Frisco, and Ennis. So, the new name better describes where these young musicians are from and who they are—All-Stars!
These young musicians range in age from 14 to 17. But TeJAS doesn’t sound like kids. The Robson Ranch performance is part of their very busy summer tour, but they are especially excited to play in the air-conditioned comfort of the clubhouse, since most of their 4th of July activities will be outdoors. TeJAS is hard at work in rehearsal to ensure a crowd-pleasing song lineup.
Since this performance is the week before the 4th of July, you can count on some patriotic fare, and they always set aside a moment to salute our veterans. There will be two sets, directed by Mr. Dimas Delgado.
Tickets are $10 each. They go on sale Monday, June 19; Wednesday, June 21; and Friday, June 23, at the clubhouse foyer from 9 to 11 a.m. Tickets will also be available at the door the day of the concert. You can also email the club at [email protected] to have tickets held at the Will Call table, to pay and pick up the day of the concert. It is open, concert seating, and a cash bar will be available.
