Do you like hot jazz?*

Listening to it? Dancing to it? Supporting it? Playing it?

You can do it all at the Rio Grande Jazz Society!


Second-lining at a Rio Grande Jazz Society monthly jam

On the third Sunday of each month, from 1:30 to 5 PM, the bandstand and the dance floor at the Edelweiss German-American Club (4821 Menaul Blvd. NE, Albuquerque) come alive as jazz jammers and dancers congregate to have an afternoon of fun and good music.

*Hot jazz, as distinct from cool jazz or bebop, is jazz in the style of Jelly Roll Morton, Spencer Williams, Bix Beiderbeck, Louis Armstrong, Jack Teagarden, the Dorsey brothers, Lu Watters and Turk Murphy, Benny Goodman, and other great musicians of the early to mid 20th century.
