Trad jazz information


London's Tranquil Valley Stompers, 1961.

Trad jazz, short for "traditional jazz", is a form of jazz in the United States and Britain that flourished from the 1930s to 1960s,[1] based on the earlier New Orleans Dixieland jazz style. Prominent trad jazz musicians such as Chris Barber, Freddy Randall, Acker Bilk, Kenny Ball, Ken Colyer and Monty Sunshine[1] performed a populist repertoire which also included jazz versions of pop songs and nursery rhymes.[1]
