with The Gulf Coast Jazz Collective
Our 2025–26 Jazz Series continues to raise the bar with a lineup that honors the roots of jazz while pushing the music forward. From timeless tributes and reimagined classics to powerhouse vocalists, bold original works, and genre-crossing grooves, each concert delivers the kind of live jazz that stays with you. Founded in 2021, the Gulf Coast Jazz Collective set out to “play real jazz and blow people out of their seats,” says band leader Paul Gavin. Five seasons in, their sold-out shows prove they’re doing just that.
