Om konseptet Bb Scene:
På Bb Scene ønsker vi å tilgjengeliggjøre live Jazzmusikk som folk flest gledes av. Vi plukker musikere fra den norske Jazz diasporan og lar de fremføre det de brenner for. I et lokale der musikk, dans og drikk møtes og skaper et, for oslo, unikt atmosfære.
På Bb Scene skaper vi et rom der Django Reinhardt, Jelly Roll Morton, Fats Waller og Louie Armstrong hade gledet seg til å opptre, en av de beste plassene til å oppleve jazz i Oslo!
