The “Jazz Age”

Nelson
The “Jazz Age” is a look into the two most critical decades in jazz history.
A period when jazz expanded beyond New Orleans to reach audiences worldwide. These years encompassed the Roaring Twenties, Prohibition, the Great Depression, and rapid technological change.
Speakeasies, juke joints, and small hidden venues offered escapism from daily hardships while giving rise to some of the greatest jazz ever composed and performed.
The 1920s and 1930s became a pivotal era in music history, and this Tuku 26 event takes you through those transformative decades illustrating the artists and stories that shaped the time.
Listen as two bands take you through the two decades of jazz history.
