Created in Alabama in 2015 after an epiphany Justin Varnes had while teaching a college jazz history course, the JLP combines education with entertainment. Each show features compelling stories about the artists and their influence on American music and culture woven in between authentic performances of popular jazz songs designed to engage casual audiences. Ditching a traditional textbook in favor of playing records and telling stories about the artists to audiences who knew little or nothing about jazz proved to be a big success. It turned out that performing the artists’ music and telling their stories in between proved to be an even bigger achievement.
