The Jazzgroove Association aims to:

- Continue to raise the profile of Jazzgroove music in Australia

- Present performances by leading Australian jazz ensembles, focussing on younger artists

- Showcase enthusiastic performers of original and often previously unperformed music.

The Jazzgroove Association is an artist-led and focused non-profit Association committed to presenting and raising the profile of Jazzgroove music - where jazz meets everything else - in Australia through weekly performances at Sydney’s Excelsior Hotel and bi-monthly CD launches at the Basement. and through our independent record label Jazzgroove Records.

Audiences can expect performances by leading Australian jazz ensembles that often have limited performance outlets for their music. Jazzgroove represents a unique opportunity for the creative development and artistic endeavour of a broad range of Australian jazz composers and performers.
