years ago an idea became a r reality; a publication

dedicated exclusively to the

jazz scene in Puerto Rico.

Jazzin' Magazine was born after years of writing about local Jazz events for US Jazz publications; Jazz Times, All About Jazz, JazzInside Magazine, Jazz Corner. recognizing the vast and amazing Puerto Rican talent working in and out of the island, we though there was a need of a magazine to showcase and promote the jazz musicians from Puerto Rico.

Due to the difficult situation with the economy in the island, the task was not easy. It's been hard to get businesses and people behind this project. But despite all that, and other difficulties like the 2017 hurricane Maria, Jazzin

Magazine celebrates 3

years since it's first issue

back in 2015.

Even though Jazzin' Magazine first issue was published on March 2015, the official presentation was in a press conference on May 20, 2015 at the Music Conservatory of Puerto Rico.

The musician in the first cover was Miguel Zenon, in our opinion and to a lot of others critics, the best alto saxophonist in the world.

After that first issue, other musicians to appeared in the cover of Jazzin' Magazine are; Saxophonists Furito Rios, Janice Maisonet and Alfredo Falu, Trumpet Player and Percussionist Jerry Gonzalez, and Trumpet Players Charlie Sepulveda and Pete Rodriguez.

Sponsoring Events

Besides the publishing of the Magazine, Jazzin' has been involved in sponsoring some of the best music events on the island. among others; the Luquillo Jazz Fest 2015, the Sancocho Jazz Fest 2016 and 2017, the Gema Corredera concert at the Tapia Theatre, San Juan 2016, and the Bueana Vista Social Club concert 2015. The logo of Jazzin' Magazine in any music event means only one thing; Quality.
