Hi, I am a trumpet player, band leader of Rich Wetzel's Groovin Higher Orchestra, and a jazz lover, fan living in Tacoma, WA but playing and listening to jazz all over, including Olympia. More info about me and my band at www.richwetzel.com
Because of the artistic integrity and history of it locally as well as nationally and internationally and the incredible music it presents to us all. The northwest and Olympia have incredible jazz musicians and a wonderful history and future too!
"A 15 piece high intensity jazz orchestra playing music from Stan Kenton, Buddy Rich, Woody Herman, Maynard Ferguson, Dean Martin to big band treatments of Chuck Berry and James Brown!"
A beacon of jazz bringing musicians and fans together.
