About

Nostal-jazz made their debut at Dazzle on July 1st, 2022 where they sold 80 tickets and grossed over $1,100. All the members are professional musicians who play frequently in other groups in and around Denver and Boulder, so it's something of an all-star group when they come together for the nostalgia!

Some of their favorite franchises to cover are Donkey Kong, The Legend of Zelda, Banjo Kazooie, and any game released for the Sega Genesis, not to mention numerous animated and live-action shows and movies. Nostal-jazz covers a wide range of styles and their music is adaptable to fit any small or large venue.
