Jazz at the 2022 Fairport Canal Days coming up June 3-5
JazzRochester at the RIJF: My picks for June 17, 2022

The jazz fest is closing in on us, but there is still . . . Live jazz around Rochester, June 2-8, 2022

black and white jazz signYes, it is the calm before the storm (of RIJF) so the pickins are fewer, but there is still some jazz out there for the next couple of weeks.  Below are the listings for live jazz (and some blues) gigs in and around Rochester for the next seven days of your life, plus those I know about through the rest of June (I'll start on July when we get to June...). Please note that I will not be adding Rochester International Jazz Festival appearances by local jazz musicians in these listings post. As in the past, I will do a special preview post prior to the festival that will bring together all of the appearances at RIJF by local jazz musicians and groups, but will otherwise detail the gigs outside the festival for those who won't be appearing.

We've compiled these gig and event listings from information obtained from our own knowledge of the jazz scene in and around Rochester, the performing artists themselves and other sources. The aim is to give you a one-stop place to find all your live jazz in and around Rochester. Click on the links where available in the post for more information on the gig or tickets where needed.
