Second Annual JEN Conference

The excitement is building! Wednesday, January 5 is the start of the Second Annual JEN Conference in New Orleans. The event promises to be chock full of great clinics, great performances and, in general,  great jazz camaraderie.

The famed Roosevelt Hotel is home base for the conference and is smack dab in the historic French Quarter. Needless to say, there will be incredible music happening in the Roosevelt’s multiple venues as well as the innumerable jazz hot spots in the city.

During the week, The Jazz Guy from Stanton’s Sheet Music will be tweeting directly from the conference. You’ll receive updates on clinic sessions, who is there and who is playing! Don’t be surprised if you get a tweet also from a great restaurant like Brennan‘s or The Court of Two Sisters or, dare we say… the Cafe Du Monde!
