We’re moving!

If you have visited All About Jazz or Jazz Near You recently, you were no doubt greeted with a 502 or 503 or if you were really lucky, a 504 error message. Though the website has been generally responsive, we've also experienced slower than normal stretches. With expansion and new features on the horizon, we anticipate higher traffic demands, resulting in a greater burden on our server.

The good news is, we have a solution.

Some of All About Jazz already exists in the cloud, and we're preparing to move the rest of the website along with Jazz Near You in the coming weeks. We'll take full advantage of cloud computing, so expect greater security, increased capacity, and improved performance resulting in a much faster website. I'll have more news about our progress next week.

You can help defray the costs of this move by making a contribution to the All About Jazz fund drive—just click the green DONATE button on the navigation bar above.

For the Love of Jazz

All About Jazz has been a pillar of jazz since 1995, championing it as an art form and, more importantly, supporting the musicians who create it. Our enduring commitment has made "AAJ" one of the most culturally important websites of its kind, read by hundreds of thousands of fans, musicians and industry figures every month.

You Can Help

To expand our coverage even further and develop new means to foster jazz discovery and connectivity we need your help. You can become a sustaining member for a modest $20 and in return, we'll immediately hide those pesky ads plus provide access to future articles for a full year. This winning combination will vastly improve your AAJ experience and allow us to vigorously build on the pioneering work we first started in 1995.
