ELKHART, Ind.-- It was a beautiful day in Downtown Elkhart, with the sun shining, and unseasonably moderate temps in the 70's.
ABC57's Chief Meteorologist Tom Coomes ventured out of the studio today to take advantage of the gorgeous weather and some jazzy accompaniment.
In addition to sharing the weather forecast by scatting, he took some time out to interview Jim Catalano.
Jim is a percussion performer with the music group VibeNation, and has played the Elkhart Jazz Fest before... 32 times, to be exact. Summer 2026 will mark he and his band's 33rd year participating in the beloved Elkhart music festival.
Catch Jim and VibeNation on Friday, June 19 from 5:30 p.m. - 6:30 p.m. on The Jazz Lounge Stage at the Civic Plaza in Downtown Elkhart.
