The music and the people to look out for -

 

Welcome to the site.  Bristol is where it is happening, right now.

The aim is to promote recently-established and new talent on the Bristol music scene - these musicians are mixing a variety of styles to create what many are referring to as nu-jazz.  

Jazz is difficult to define but its melodies, chord structures and rhythms have become part of current music in so many ways - blues, swing, funk, latin, acid-jazz, acoustic or electric - these artists are drawing on all of these.

Bristol and the surrounding area has produced, and continues to produce, some brilliant, exciting and versatile musicians - guitarists, saxophonists, vocalists, keyboard players and many, many more.  This site aims to celebrate the variety of music that is currently being produced and give a background to some of the talent.

Jazz in its broadest sense is still gaining in popularity and acclaim and the new breed of musicians are providing a new and accessible take on this fantastic music.   Find them here ...
