Jazz in the Background

The "Jazz in the Background" playlist is a curated selection of tracks perfect for those moments when you want jazz to fill the room without taking over the conversation. It's a smooth blend of instrumental and vocal tracks from a diverse set of artists like the Anthony Hide Trio with their "Soulful Serenade" to the soothing vibes of "Moonlight In Vermont" by the Will Rivers Trio. This playlist is versatile, serving as the ideal backdrop for everything from a laid-back evening at home to a bustling afternoon at the café. Whether it's the mellow tones of "Your Smile" by Magnolia or the upbeat rhythm of "Neon Nightscape" by Fulton Street Players, each piece has been chosen for its ability to create an atmosphere that's relaxed but engaging.

Spanning across various styles of jazz, from the classic sounds encapsulated in "Stella By Starlight" by Drew Milner to the contemporary beats of "Chasing Raindrops" by Shay Walsh, this playlist doesn't stick to one lane.
