About us

Union Chapel Jazz Band is a community collective of amateur and semi-professional musicians with a shared love of playing traditional jazz music.

The band began over 40 years ago at a night-school class in jazz and improvisation and now rehearses at The Union Chapel in Fallowfield, performing music in the community, for charity events, and in dementia care facilities.

Our playlist includes:

  • Bourbon St

  • My baby just cares

  • Ice cream

  • Fly me to moon

  • Bill Bailey

  • Dr Jazz

  • Down by the riverside

  • All of me

  • Mame

  • Hello Dolly

  • When the saints go marching in

Charity focus

Many of our performances are to raise awareness and collect donations for deserving local charities, such as St Ann’s Hospice. We are so grateful to everyone who supports us, as knowing that our efforts make a difference makes it even more of a pleasure to play.
