Experience Jazz Pretenders live on August 7th

Jazz Pretenders will perform at Jamboree in Barcelona, Spain on August 7th, 2026. The group is a contemporary jazz ensemble known for their interpretations of classic bebop and hard bop standards, alongside original compositions that blend traditional jazz vocabulary with elements of modern improvisation and occasionally, Latin rhythms. They frequently feature dynamic arrangements and virtuosic soloing.

Jamboree is a historic jazz club located in the Plaça Reial in Barcelona’s Gothic Quarter. Established in 1961 by the musician Jordi Pujol, it initially functioned as a meeting point for musicians and enthusiasts during the Franco regime, offering a space for relatively uncensored artistic expression. Throughout its history, Jamboree has hosted internationally renowned jazz artists alongside emerging local talent. It's known for its intimate atmosphere and dedication to live jazz performance. The venue has undergone renovations over the years but maintains its commitment to showcasing diverse styles within the jazz spectrum. It currently operates as both a club with regular performances and a bar open throughout the day, continuing to be a significant cultural hub for jazz in Barcelona.
