Representation Leads to Change - A Bold New Direction for the Northern Jazz Scene

With the next three years of funding secured from Arts Council England , we can reveal that our board of trustees has undergone a re-fresh, recruiting leading minds in the music industry who make it their business to address lack of representation in the industry and champion diversity.

Our new chair is Aaron Casserly Stewart, a jazz vocalist, manager, producer, educator, activist & former singer with the three time Grammy Award winning group The Sounds Of Blackness.

Tune in to BBC Radio Leeds this Saturday from 17:00 to hear an exclusive interview with Aaron in conversation with Liz Green here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/live:bbc_radio_leeds

Aaron is joining the board of trustees alongside Jackie Thompson, Sonia Mellor and Roger Wilson. Head on over to our website, or watch our socials over the coming weeks for more information on the skill sets that they will bring to the table to assist Jazz North in delivering its mission at this exciting time.
