The Renowned Music Organization Honors The City’s Most Dedicated Jazz Venues and Organizations

(Austin, TX)— For more than five years, the Austin Jazz Alliance has served as an organization to help jazz musicians in Austin and Central Texas promote their music.  Since its creation in 2009, it has become dedicated to celebrating jazz music and bringing together jazz musicians, jazz fans, and jazz related businesses.
This month, the city council of Austin will be honoring the Austin Jazz Alliance for their support of jazz music and proclaim April as Jazz Appreciation month in Austin. To further recognize the achievements of the Jazz community in the city, on April 30, The Austin Jazz Alliance will host the 2014 Jazz Appreciation Awards and Jam event at the Brass House (115 San Jacinto Boulevard, Austin, Texas, 78701) at 7PM. The event will honor local jazz organizations that have been instrumental in supporting and promoting jazz and the arts.

The event will be held at the Brass House from 7:00-9:00pm

This years honorees include:

The Brass House for Newest Jazz Venue supporting Jazz
The Austin Jazz Workshop for Bringing jazz into schools

Diverse Arts Culture Works for providing music and arts programs to the Austin community for over 20 years, including the Clarksville Jazz and Arts Festival.


Doors will open at 7:00, and the Awards ceremony will begin at 7:30. Guests will then enjoy a Jazz Jam at 8PM with a performance by The Texas Jazz Jam cruise house band.

About the Austin Jazz Alliance:

The Austin Jazz Alliance began as a grass-roots organization that supports jazz music and jazz musicians in Austin and surrounding central Texas. In 2012 and 2013, Austin Jazz Alliance members Fito Kahn and Paul Klemperer received a proclamation from the City of Austin, in recognition for their support of jazz in the city.
