Put on your dancing shoes and head to the Chattanooga Market this Sunday.
The big band music of Sweet Georgia Sound will have marketgoers cutting a rug inside First Tennessee Pavilion. Historically one of the most popular markets of the season, this event has people of all ages singing and swinging to the vivacious music that dominated the music scene during the first half of the 20th century.
Brittney Combs, Chattanooga Market marketing assistant, says the 20-member Sweet Georgia Sound has played at the market since 1994.
“They perform a few times a year at Chattanooga Market, including our Holiday Market at the Convention Center,” Combs says. “A number of them (from within the big band) also form the Oktoberfest Band.”
