This FREE OUTDOOR event features the Hickory Jazz Orchestra under the leadership of founder Rick Cline. The big band will perform classic 1940s era big band arrangements from the great American songbook. “Swingin’ Under the Stars” is presented by the City of Hickory and hosted by the Hickory Music Factory.
