Hello Jazz Fam,

Okie dokie..it's been a long dark year for us and many businesses have fallen. We pray they can come back as the U.S. begins to see this proverbial light at the end of the tunnel.

As for PITJ, we have begun to renew our quest to bring world-class jazz to the Greater San Diego areas' restaurants, clubs and hopefully, a brand new San Diego Jazz Festival.

Just dusting off plans that were halted by covid, in hopes of a jazzy future for live music here in Southern California!

Stay tuned...

12/02/2020...this year of bad news never ends.. 😞

Midtown's Blue Smoke, Jazz Standard Close Permanently The popular barbecue joint and jazz club in Rose Hill told customers Wednesday that it could not survive the pandemic.

My beloved JAZZ STANDARD closes permanently. Been sad all day st this announcement. End of an era.

Almost two decades ago, Union Square Hospitality Group set out on a pioneering journey to marry authentic pit barbecue with great jazz in New York City with the opening of Blue Smoke and Jazz Standard in NYC’s Flatiron neighborhood. It is with great sadness that USHG shares that Blue Smoke Flatiron and Jazz Standard will not be reopening on 27th Street.

While our physical doors may be shut, our passion to serve and entertain lives on and we are optimistic about the future and writing the next chapter of Jazz Standard. In the meantime, the club is hosting exclusive artist conversations and performances virtually.

Thank you to our team members, our guests, and the city of New York for embracing Jazz Standard and supporting us throughout the years.

Hey everyone. Greetings from sunny San Diego, CA. I know the page has been real quiet. But, that does NOT mean I haven't been working on some really cool things to come out here in the greater San Diego area.

Seems they are STARVING for some truly great JAZZ HAPPENINGS here!

Please stay tuned.
Much more to come!
