AAJ - Los Angeles Newspaper to Launch in March 2003

Los Angeles, CA -- “As of the first week of March 2003, the jazz community of Los Angeles will have a central resource for comprehensive news, interviews, extensive monthly calendars of events, music reviews, features and jazz-related information in AllAboutJazz-Los Angeles. The monthly publication will be devoted to local as well as national coverage, and will encompass the breadth of jazz and improvisational music as unique to the city.

AllAboutJazz-Los Angeles is the third of several planned print-offshoots of AllAboutJazz.com, the web's premier jazz site. Since its inception in 1996, AllAboutJazz.com has been one of the leading jazz resources on the web. It has received “best of the web" designations from the New York Times, L.A. Times, Wall Street Journal, Time Magazine, Forbes and the BBC. Each month, AAJ provides hundreds of reviews, interviews, artist profiles, news, feature columns, jazz festival and concert coverage, discussion topics and more.
