The history of The
White Rock Traditional Jazz Society dates back to its
establishment in 1990 to encourage and promote the
performance of New Orleans and Traditional styles of
jazz in the White Rock/South Surrey area of British
Columbia, Canada.
We present live jazz every Sunday afternoon from
September to April and we close the season with a
day-long minifest. Red Beans & Rice usually plays on the
first Sunday of the month and you can hear other regular
guest bands on the remaining Sundays. We usually close
our Sunday sessions with a New Orleans-style umbrella
parade. We also have raffles and occasionally a boogie
woogie piano spot at intermission.
The majority of Club events are held at our 'home',
Legion 240 at 2643 128th Street in South Surrey, a
non-smoking and air-conditioned facility, just a
10-minute drive from the Canada/US border, 30 minutes to
the Vancouver Island ferries, 45 minutes from Vancouver
International Airport, and 45 minutes to Vancouver.
Club members and visitors are always welcome. If you
enjoy your visit to our Club, we hope you will join us,
bring your friends and help keep this wonderful music
alive for generations to come.
