Each month Nina Towne and Anne Decker host a jazz jam at The Phoenix. The jam is always full of energy from people who have come together to celebrate live jazz and what it always brings. A genre steeped in history, tradition, protocol, nuance and genius musicians, juxtaposed with an individual’s, at any skill level, raw, inspired, interpretation, and execution in the VERY moment = jazz. Jazz is a journey, a destination, to which, even the greats say…you never arrive.
