The Encore is a performance venue without fixed walls — relocatable to any stage, any season, any space. Every show streams free to the world. Always family-friendly. Always affordable.
The Encore is not a room. It is not a building. It is a performance venue that travels — setting up wherever live jazz is needed most, in intimate halls and open parks, and streaming every show live to anyone in the world who wants to listen.
What makes it The Encore is not the address. It is the music, the standard, and the mission: live jazz that is accessible, affordable, family-friendly, and always real.
"The Encore isn't just a series of shows. It's a permanent argument that live music belongs everywhere."
Two flagship venues in 2026 — Elks Lodge #339 (winter/spring) and The Cascades at South Park (summer). The venue may change season to season. The music doesn't.
Cafés, galleries, community halls, outdoor courtyards. The Encore travels to audiences who don't have easy access to live music.
Every show streams free. Not a recording — a live event, happening in real time, open to anyone anywhere in the world.
The full 2026 season runs from March through September — five winter/spring shows at Elks Lodge #339 on the North Shore, and eight summer shows at The Cascades at Stone Manse, South Park.
