NEW JAZZ LISTENER

Mission

The New Jazz Listener (NJL) is the top jazz house on the Clubhouse app. We introduce jazz
music to people who are curious about it or think the music is boring or too serious.

Our flagship Sunday room has special guests who bring incredible music they think we must
hear. So the playlist? Wow! You gotta check it out.

Vision

The New Jazz Listener’s effort to create new jazz fans also aspires to help fill audiences at jazz performances, thereby supporting local musicians and presenters around the world.

COME ON IN.

Thank you for bringing awareness to Jazz music and its history. I love your room.

Speaker and Author

I appreciate the light-hearted rooms just as much as the serious rooms that are in Clubhouse”, says Ali who has joined clubs such as New Jazz Listener.

— Egyptian Streets Magazine

That was so fun! You and Marvin lead a great club, and I am honored to have spent the day
with you.

— Charlotte Lee

Primo Artists, representing Wynton Marsalis classical performances

It’s funny that I was never a fan of jazz. I couldn’t understand why people liked a bunch of
instruments all playing seemingly out of unison and just making noise….long story short, I’m
developing an appreciation and am now wanting to learn more about it.
