The Jazz Urbane is a contemporary music movement which embraces and infuses jazz with great R&B song writing, melodies, grooves and style. It’s not really a ?new movement?, but a new configuration of mindset. The idea, both philosophically and as a demographic, is that Jazz Urbane artistry is mature, sophisticated and creative, while providing a groove that ANYONE can feel. The result is a progressive cultural musical response; the Jazz Urbane.
