Hello
I am a Jazz Singer looking to relocate somewhere where I can meet some great Musicians to collaborate with. Want to be somewhere where I have lots of opportunities to sing and share my craft.
Where venue owners are respectful enough to pay you for your time and effort and talent
Do Madison audiences appreciate Jazz? Or are they more into other genres of Music?

I know there are jazz fans in Madison, but if you're looking to make a living from your art, I'd suggest you focus on larger cities than this one. Milwaukee has a very lively and robust music scene, and I suspect you'd find far more opportunities there than you would in Madison.

Not that I don't like Madison - I just don't think you'd find nearly as much in the way of artistic opportunities, particularly paying gigs, in this city as you would in a larger one.

Jazz Clubs in Milwaukee:

The Jazz Estate
Carolines
Jazz Gallery
Mason Street Grill*
The Sugar Maple*
The Highbury*
Wisconsin Conservatory of Music
Via*
Transfer*
Blu
Mamies*

From what I hear the Jazz Estate and Carolines are the two best Jazz Clubs in MKE.

*places that features regular Jazz bands and/or Jazz nights but not strictly Jazz Clubs.
