This jam session will be co-led by vocalist Rachel Azbell and trombonist Linda Landis and will feature standards and Great American Songbook tunes composed or made famous by female jazz musicians.

Led by some of Columbus’ finest musicians, the Jazz Academy Jam Sessions are an inclusive, engaging jam environment for all. We also invite non-musicians to come participate as audience members of the jam.
