Until Birmingham Jazz launched in September 1976 there was no regular contemporary jazz club or venue in the Birmingham area. There were visiting, often American, groups promoted by people like Norman Granz, that played bigger venues like the Town Hall. Local clubs and venues tended to play Trad and revivalist New Orleans based music... We are pleased to acknowledge the support of the Arts Council England for our Birmingham Jazz@40 Season... We aim to promote contemporary jazz in local venues, provide a platform for new talent and offer you a friendly club atmosphere in which to enjoy the music. Our regular Friday nights at 1000 Trades are widely regarded as the premier Birmingham Jazz Club with local, national and international bands playing in the funky upstairs room which provides a great vibe for listening up close to great jazz musicians. It's live music at its best!
