Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You

Anyone who’s survived a few Phoenix summers recognizes that there’s a subtle linguistic thing going on with the phrase “under the stars.” Many arts groups fall back on it this time of year, but no one’s trying to fool you.

The cooler-than-it-sounds annual series kicks off with a jazz show by the Jacob Koller Duet.
