Quoting from the movie La La Land - Jazz, the music genre, is all about 'conflict and compromise.' It is a style that is defined by its improvisations. Though Jazz has a niche audience, it has also appealed to a larger section of music lovers ever since it was conceived on the streets of New Orleans.
Live Jazz music can be an exhilarating experience even if you are not an aficionado. If you're not all that familiar with the genre, we can suggest an introduction - listen to tracks by Frank Sinatra, Michael Buble, Harry Connick Jr and Jamie Foxx (yes, he can carry a tune) before going on to avant garde Jazz performers like Wynton Marsalis or Miles Davis. And if you want to experience Jazz in the city, here are some great options.
NOLA Eatery and Social House
Where better to start off this list than where it all began? (NOLA is short for New Orleans, Louisana). NOLA rightfully bears its title, with great jazz tunes coming at you, yummy Cajun cuisine, and of course a live band. Armada Bluebay Hotel, Cluster P, Jumeirah Lakes Towers; call 04 399 8155
Frankie's
Frankie's may be an Italian restaurant, but that doesn't mean the Italians can't get their jazz on. Five days a week, from Wednesday to Friday at 8.30pm, jazz and soul duo Kevin and Donovan take over the stage. JA Oasis Beach Tower, The Walk, Jumeirah Beach Residence; call 04 399 4311
