Dewey Decibel Concerts Williamsburg Regional Library

Though the Dewey Decibel Concert Series as we know it today launched in 1999, live music has been a library staple since the 1970s. It wasn’t until a visiting musical act, Eddie from Ohio, coined the phrase “Dewey Decibel” (a pun on the well-known library classification system, Dewey Decimal) that the series was re-branded with the name we all know and love today. 

Since its inception, the Dewey Decibel Concert series has always been focused on bringing high caliber local, regional, and national musicians to Williamsburg Regional Library.

On Friday, December 13th at 7pm, Higher Ground Jazz Band will perform in Williamsburg Library Theater. Hight Ground Jazz Band is a community outreach group that seeks to uplift and inspire with swing, Latin, and jazz standards as well as modern big band arrangements.  The band is composed of 17 professional and amateur instrumentalists, along with vocalists. It is currently under the direction of Joel Joyner, whose international trumpet artistry has been heard with Stevie Wonder, Gladys Knight, Dizzy Gillespie and many other musical stars. Free admission, no tickets required.

We couldn’t be more appreciative of our performers and our concert goers, as well as the Friends of WRL, who underwrite this phenomenal series.  For more information about the series, ticketing information, and more, check out www.wrl.org/dewey-decibel or call Program Services at 757.741.3300.
