Welcome to our website. We are a United Kingdom-based traditional jazz promotions organisation. We arrange jazz festival breaks, (click here) we promote and perform jazz theatre shows, organise and run jazz clubs and provide a range of jazz ensembles from a trio up to an 8 piece traditional jazz or swing band, tailored to your needs.

We have a gospel show "Walkin' With The King" which we perform with our hot traditional New Orleans Jazz Band at churches all over the country.

You can buy our Rose Records CDs & DVDs when you visit our traditional jazz record store using the link on the left. You can also find out about our digital CD recording and DVD Filming packages, join the National Traditional Jazz Mailing List, join our Yahoo newsgroup, find out about many other jazz gigs up-and-down the country.

Finally, we have a section all about the early history of jazz and some of its greatest drum exponents. We hope that you will find much to interest you here and that you will sign our guestbook before you leave. Come back often for the latest news!
