In these dark times we have to keep surrounding us in positive and creative environments. Like this beautiful group of people working so hard to keep the music scenes afloat. It strengthens us and gives us hope!
We also have a very special day coming up to unite us all in our common love for jazz music. To celebrate International Jazz Day the 30th of April, the jazz community in Sweden has gathered to produce a national streaming festival. Between 4 and 8 pm (Swede timing) on Thursday we will broadcast from 7 cities and a total of 10 jazz acts will preform during this time.
