Jazz Under the Bridge® by MWill

Jazz Under the Bridge® is a music-driven brand rooted in community, fine arts, and cultural preservation. Born beneath the iconic bridges of New York City, the brand serves as a dynamic platform for live events, music, mix shows, & artist development.

​

Launched November,10th 2016 in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, featuring jazz group Onyx Collective, Jazz Under the Bridge® embodies a tradition of storytelling through jazz, hip-hop, and improvisational music. With origins in Queensbridge, Long Island City, Queens, our mission bridges local independent artists with major brands, fostering creative collaborations built on shared values.

​

Incorporated in Brooklyn on January 17th, 2017, Jazz Under the Bridge® champions live improvisation in a digital age through innovative event programs like freestyle jam band sessions, CDJ/Serato/Vinyl DJ sets, open mics, and producer showcases. Inspired by our founding residency at the legendary Williamsburg Music Center, we continue to cultivate a new wave, jazz-infused hip-hop sound supporting artists, DJs, and music connoisseurs all in one, managing the wave far beyond our Williamsburg foundation. Informed by a wealth of generational intelligence, our mission is to expand the brand beyond local New York cultural heritage through pop-up brand-focused music-driven experiences and curated works via authentic strategic partnerships.

Our work spans Live Events, Radio, Music Production, Content Creation, Sportswear Marketing and Branding.
