Welcome to Ayr Jazz Club

We are delighted that you have found us on the web.   As a result of two successful jazz festivals in 2003/4, Ayr Jazz Club was founded in 2005 to bring live music to the jazz enthusiasts of all Ayrshire and beyond.  Our festivals continued until 2008 and since those early days we have had the pleasure of listening to a varied range of bands from Dixieland to New Orleans and Trad, as well as music from the 1920 - 30's. For only £10 (members £8) why not come along and enjoy up to 3 hours of scintillating music?  Our next event is shown below.

What a great evening we had at our 14th Birthday party with The Washington & West Coast Jazzmen.  There were a couple of changes from the original line-up with Dave Rae being replaced by Kit Carey on banjo and Herbie Hudson replacing Jim Blenkin on trombone.  In addition we welcomed the lovely Violet Milne on piano and the band gelled beautifully on the evening, playing to a full house.
Our next club night is on Friday 21 June when we will be entertained by Emily Bacon's Good Time Gang with the normal line-up of Paul Bacon (drums), Liz Bacon (clarinet), Emily Bacon (piano & vocals), Peter Wright (trumpet), Mike Kennedy (bass), Sarah Thatcher (banjo) and Jim Blenkin (trombone) deputizing for Jeff Milner.
Looking further ahead to Friday 19 July, we feature a new band to the club, namely "Classic                                                                                    Swing" from Tyne & Wear.

All normal club nights now commence at 7.30pm. Full bar available, tea and coffee as usual £1 per item. Normal admission for members is still at £8 with visitors at £10.  Further information can be  obtained by telephoning Stuart on 01292-590773
