The PRJC Presents the Jefferson Street Strutters (in-person concert)

The Jefferson Street Strutters play New Orleans style Traditional Jazz and swing, emphasizing popular songs of the 1920’s, 30’s, and 40’s. Melodies that are relevant and loved today. A potpourri of danceable, hummable melodies both instrumental and with vocals. We like to say, “we play happy music.” Our audiences join in the fun with hand-clapping, toe-tapping, smiles and feeling the happiness we strive to bring them.

While the band was hatched on a real Jefferson Street in Northern Virginia, most of its members have played and marched where jazz began, on the streets and in the clubs of New Orleans and its most famous jazz house, Preservation Hall.

Jefferson Street has entertained audiences at the Smithsonian Museum, National Park, street fairs and festivals, and numerous retirement centers. It was honored to be called to lead the Second Line Parade at the Washington National Cathedral memorial for the late WRC-TV new anchor Jim Vance.

Rosensteel Hall is just North of the Capital Beltway off of Georgia Ave. and is just a few blocks from the Forest Glen metro stop (Red Line). There is plenty of parking at the venue, ample seating inside, a large dance floor, and a full-service cash bar with reasonably priced drinks.

The PRJC has been bringing live traditional jazz including concerts and jams to the DC area for over 50 years. Come on out and support live local music!
