All About Jazz Music, Musicians, Bands & Albums

ALL ABOUT JAZZ NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT

All About Jazz & Jazz Near You were built to promote jazz music: both recorded and live events. We rely primarily on venues, festivals and musicians to promote their events through our platform. With club closures, shelter in place and an uncertain future, we've pivoted our platform to collect, promote and broadcast livestream concerts to support our jazz musician friends. This is a significant but neccesary effort that will help musicians now, and in the future. You can help offset the cost of this essential undertaking by making a donation today. In return, we'll deliver an ad-free experience (which includes hiding the bottom right video ad). Thank you.

Pivoting to support jazz musicians and presenters around the globe

Over the last 25 years, All About Jazz has continually reinvented itself to adapt to the times. COVID-19 presents not only a challenge to All About Jazz, but to every person and organization that is connected to our music. Never at a loss for ideas or the willingness to do the work, we have determined a course of action and will do what is necessary to help musicians and presenters bring greater exposure to their livestream events. We've also partnered with other organizations of action. Click this link to track our progress. We're open to all forms of collaboration, so please feel free to contact us with your ideas.
