JazzRochester at the RIJF: My picks for June 22-23
While at the RIJF, perhaps select some of our local talent? Yes, you can hear them the other 356 days of the year....

Outside the RIJF, there will be some ... Live jazz around ROC, June 16-22

street scene on Jazz Street (Gibbs) during earlier RIJFThe CGI Rochester International Jazz Festival begins on Friday! I've been publishing my picks for the festival, but you be you and get out there to hear what you want to hear . . . . 

Below are the listings for live jazz (and some blues) gigs in and around Rochester for the next seven days, plus those I know about through the rest of June and into July.  These (and those published on Wednesday next week) are gigs outside the RIJF "footprint."  I will be writing a post focusing on the local jazz musicians and bands who will be appearing at this year's festival before the end of the week.

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. Only music start times are listed, so visit or call the venue for more details about when the doors open, etc. (the websites for many of the venues are in the right panel).
