Diana Ross and Sheryl Crow filled the 2,000-seat Benedict Music Tent on Friday and Saturday respectively.

 

Those shows were sellouts, according to Jazz Aspen Snowmass founder Jim Horowitz.

Horowitz said audience members said the show “wildly exceeded expectations.”

 

Sunday’s shows with Booker T. and Marcus Miller filled a little less than two thirds of the venue.

 

Smokey Robinson performs this weekend in a collaboration with the Aspen Music Festival and School. That’s anticipated to be a sellout as well.
