The Jazz Warriors were an English all-black London-based group of jazz musicians, that made its debut in 1986.[1] The idea for the band came from the Abibi Jazz Arts, a London organization that promoted black music and black culture. The Jazz Warriors provided black British musicians with a venue to showcase their talents, which until that time was limited mostly to funk music and reggae.[2]

According to writer John Chilton, the Jazz Warriors "proved to be the launching pad for the stellar talents of a number of important jazz musicians."[3] The band released one album – 1987's Out of Many, One People. Despite many of the members leaving for solo careers, the band remained together until 1994;[4] however, they reunited in 2020.
