Jim Testa | For The Jersey Journal
Jazz sometimes gets a bad rap as a genre that’s grown stuffy, stodgy and best enjoyed sitting down. And then there’s Riverview Jazz’s Jersey City Pier Fest, which for the next three Fridays will prove that jazz in all its permutations can be fresh, funky and, most of all, fun., will continue on Sept. 15, 22 and 29, at J. Grundy Plaza at Exchange Place. The free, 6 p.m.
