Welcome to the Jelly Jazz website
Jelly Jazz, the grand daddy of the funk and jazz scene in the South West of England. Running continuously for 17 years at various venues across the region and beyond, making it one of the country's, if not the world's longest running club nights! Specialising in dancefloor rockin' funk, soul and jazz, spiced up with the best of nu-funk, breaks, beats, Latin, drum & bass and whatever fits the Jelly Jazz vibe. It's genre un-specific, but totally funky!

Przaśnik 'Azymicep'
(FMAP 12")
W.O.W. Straight in as one of my favourite tracks of the year, and it's only March! Thoroughly exciting dancefloor music that's hard to pin down yet easy to connect with. This is jazz, this is house, this is Afrocentric, this is brilliant and will be a staple peak time tune at Jelly Jazz for a while to come.
