Jazz is creation.  Jazz is connection.  Jazz is beauty born of struggle. Jazz is rebirth.  The musicians of Fenno Street Jazz draw from the vast vocabulary of traditional and modern jazz infused with the soul of Delta blues and the fearlessness of progressive rock resulting in an intense musical experience that pushes the boundaries of the present while honoring all that has come before.
