Calling all jazz musicians AND those who like to listen!

Let's play Jazz, Latin, and Brazilian standards! Get your chord changes from iRealPro, and the heads from the Real Book. All and any instruments and singers are welcome. This is a community-organized event.

If you'd like to come up and play or sing, please show up 30 minutes before the event, and say hello.
