Imagine All About Jazz... free from the commercial ad clutter that sometimes obstructs content, causes additional scrolling or page movement... I know exactly what that's like and it's glorious. :-) The pages load fast, they're cleaner, and it's how the website was meant to be viewed. And you can enjoy that same experience for as little as $20 a year.

Our goal has always been two-fold: deliver an ever-evolving, immersive and entertaining experience for our readers and support jazz and promote the professionals who make the music.

Our 25 year commitment to continual improvement does not come without costs which are at times, significant. AAJ is essentially an ongoing investment—whatever comes in is reinvested in expansion and improvement. Our willingness to keep pace with technology is the reason why we are still relevant—it's also what separates us from other music websites.

We're looking for 1,000 contributions of $20 to expedite the modernization project that will allow us to fully transform All About Jazz, reach some lofty goals and deliver some long-anticipated features to our 200,000+ members and our half million readers.

All About Jazz (which includes Jazz Near You) is not a non-profit organization, but we are a micro business—call us mom & pop without the mom. Your support will go a long way towards our long-standing goal of making All About Jazz a vital resource for many years to come.
