The Scene
Breaking ground since the mid-1950s, the Newport Jazz Festival has a storied history rivaling that of any other American festival hosting artists like Herbie Hancock, Led Zeppelin, Frank Sinatra, Muddy Waters, The Allman Brothers, and Miles Davis. Its current incarnation is three full days of jazz on four unique stages on the grounds at Fort Adams State Park in Rhode Island.
