Blue Notes & Blessings To Showcase Grammy Award-winning Jazz At Benefit Event For Beaver County

EntSun -- A distinctive evening of live jazz, fine dining, and community generosity is coming to Beaver County this spring. Blue Notes & Blessings, a jazz benefit evening supporting Catholic education, will be held on Thursday, May 7, 2026, at 6:30 p.m. at Seven Oaks Country Club, 132 Lisbon Road, Beaver, Pennsylvania.

The event will bring together Pittsburgh's finest jazz artists for an elegant evening benefiting three local Catholic schools: Our Lady of Fatima School, Saint Monica Catholic Academy, and Sts. Peter & Paul School. Tickets are $150 per guest, with cocktail attire or evening dress encouraged.

Grammy Award-Winning Headliners

The evening will be headlined by Grammy Award-winning saxophonist Eric DeFade and acclaimed vocalist Kelley DeFade, who will perform two full sets of jazz classics alongside a band of all-star players. The program will feature selections honoring Mary Lou Williams—the legendary Pittsburgh jazz pianist and composer whose conversion to Catholicism profoundly shaped her later work—as well as the legendary Dave Brubeck.
