About Back Lot Jams and the MBTS Jazz Fest
Our Team
A few years back, three friends were enjoying some cold libations and reminiscing about their younger days, when Manchester and surrounding towns had a vibrant music scene. One common memory was listening to a local band called SHADE at an outdoor gig held in the back lot of the local American Legion on a summer evening. As many great events happen, someone said “why not”, and everyone agreed that it was time to revive the tradition. Scott Milne (left), Greg Cook (center) and John Filias (right) started having after-hour meetings in the back rooms of taverns and from those meetings began the Back Lot Jams music company–an organization with no other purpose than to bring good, live music to everyone who enjoys a fun night out. Come and join them as they celebrate summer times and live music at their premier event, the Manchester by-the-Sea Jazz Fest! – Scott, Greg & John
