The Jungle Jazz Band

  • Punta Foce Lugano, 6900, TI Switzerland (map)

The Jungle Jazz Band is a traditional jazz band made up of six young international musicians based in Berlin. They all share a passion for the oldest jazz, which originated in New Orleans in the early 20th century.

The Jungle is known throughout the European swing dance and traditional jazz community for offering some of the best hot jazz on the scene. They often collaborate with renowned New Orleans musicians, including Meschiya Lake, Russell Welch and Joseph Faison. The band resurrects the original raw and powerful sound of the early jazz era, when music was meant to be hot, fun and danceable.

Drawing from great composers such as Jelly Roll Morton, King Oliver, Louis Armstrong's hot five, Bix Beiderbecke, and Sidney Bechet, the band offers fresh interpretations and exciting arrangements, exciting all kinds of audiences, from dancers to jazz connoisseurs and the jubilant crowd.
