Kansas City has more fountains than anywhere in the world but Rome, as many boulevards as any city but Paris, and a jazz heritage comparable to any city in the world. Now the city that gave birth to the Count Basie Band has a contemporary big band that pays homage to the past while looking to the future. The Boulevard Big Band is Kansas City jazz!

The Kansas City Boulevard Big Band plays every second and fourth Tuesday night of each month from 8:00 to 10:30 at J Barleycorn's Bar & Grill, 9148 Santa Fe Dr., Shawnee Mission, KS
