Basin Street Regulars Jazz Club

Help Send a Kid
to Jazz Camp

(The Central Coast Hot Swingin' Jazz Society)

If you enjoy traditional, classic jazz, the exciting Fats Waller-Louis Armstrong-Jack Teagarden-Benny Goodman Sextet kind that was the most popular music up through the beginning of the Big Band swing era, then you are in luck. Pismo Beach is the home of the Basin Street Regulars, probably the finest jazz club in the State! The Basin Street Regulars is non-profit a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization. We are interested in the preservation and promotion of traditional jazz, in providing a place where jazz musicians can play and providing young musicians the opportunity to play along with older, more experienced musicians. To further this last interest, we provide scholarships to jazz music camps for promising young musicians.

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, and we provide educational opportunities to both youth and young adults. Every year, our club sends between up to 10 young people to the Sacramento or Mammoth Lakes youth jazz camps.
