Cape Town’s dynamic music scene is getting a fresh infusion of energy with Are You Jazz?—a new event where musicians, singers, rappers, and performers come together to celebrate creativity and improvisation. This jam session is more than just a platform for performances; it’s a space for artists to express their talents, connect with others, and contribute to the city’s rich cultural rhythm.
Held at a cosy venue in Observatory, Are You Jazz? invites performers to step up and showcase their skills with the support of a live band, creating music in real time. Whether you’re a seasoned musician or a newcomer to the scene, the event provides an open and inclusive environment where creativity flourishes.
At its core, Are You Jazz? is about building a community. Founder Quaide Rumble envisioned the event as a space where artists can come together, support one another, and create freely. “I wanted to create a platform where artists can truly exercise their craft,” Rumble explains. “It’s about building a community where everyone feels comfortable—a safe space for them to showcase themselves and their music.” With previous events selling out, the excitement around this gathering is palpable.
For artists looking to share their passion and connect with like-minded creatives, Are You Jazz? is the perfect opportunity. The next event is set for Saturday, 09 November, at Ground Culture in Observatory. Tickets are available for R60 online via Quicket and R80 at the door. Whether you’re performing or simply soaking in the atmosphere, Are You Jazz? promises an unforgettable night of music, community, and creativity.
