Thousands of Islanders have flocked to Howard Davis Park every summer since 2002 to enjoy Jazz in the Park, the culmination of what has become a week-long festival. But co-founder and event director Martin Coxshall is about to become a father and will not have the time to devote to the festival this year. ‘It’s a big commitment for anyone to take on,’ he said. ‘It involves so many people – last year we had 80 volunteers just for the concert. I’ve had demos and phone calls from musicians in the UK to come over this year – they want fees, of course, and finding funds is very time-consuming.
