Everett Street Jazz
@everett_street_jazz
Description
We are classically trained, versatile, local Shreveport/Bossier musicians and music educators who mainly perform 1920's -1950's instrumental combo jazz music. We thrive in the Swing, Dixieland, Latin, Bossa, Fusion, and Bebop subcategories in jazz; however, we enjoy funk, pop, Disney, and R&B charts from Tower of Power, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, and more. One day over in Bulldog Land at Louisiana Tech University, a group of Music Majors lived on Everett Street. To quench their thirst for jazz, Jonathan "JMart" Martinez, Josh Hires, Mark Michelle, and Brent Latin met in the Band of Pride Band Room to spark the beginnings of Everett Street Jazz. They performed all over Ruston, Monroe, Shreveport, Bossier, and everywhere in between - bringing class to Louisiana for the past 15 years. As the original band members graduated LA Tech, started their careers, and moved here and there, the torch has been passed to Cory Joy Craig and her crew - still harboring the spirit of jazz, fun, and Everett Street. Everett Street Jazz lives on and would love to bring this same spirit to your event!
