Do the pivot!

We're doing our best to rigorously pivot our platform to support our jazz musician friends and ourselves during this time of crisis. If you're not already suffering from donation fatigue, please consider supporting AAJ with a modest sum. As noted journalist and good friend, Joe Woodard stated when hearing about our directional shift to broadcasting live streams, "this is great, and something AAJ is ideally and philosophically suited for." If you agree with Joe, please make a donation.
