The Story
About Us
Founded in 1976, the South Bay Traditional Jazz Society is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the performance, promotion, and preservation of traditional jazz. We sponsor monthly live music and dance sessions on the 4th Sunday of each month except for May, November and December when the dance sessions are on the 3rd Sunday. Please check our Calendar for upcoming events!
Featured Bands
We feature a different guest band each month for listening and dancing. Check the Calendar for upcoming bands.
