About

"Join us Sunday Nights for Chicago’s Only Jazz Cruise!

Be immersed in iconic Chicago Jazz while cruising the historic Chicago River!

Live Music by internationally known jazz guitarist, Geordie Kelly & his band. 

The Chicago style of Jazz came out of both the Mississippi Delta and New Orleans “Dixieland” style with pioneer musicians like Louis Armstrong & King Oliver creating its unique sound.


The scene is very active today with numerous Jazz clubs, local talent and the hugely popular Chicago Jazz Festival!

Chicago is widely considered the Capital of Jazz Music.

Geordie Kelly has performed extensively in North America, Europe, Asia, and in parts of Africa. 

He has been privileged to share the stage with artists such as Larry Coryell, Ed Calle, Bobby Shew, Phil DeGreg, Maureen McGovern, Frank Mantooth, Bob Bowman, Ritchie Cole, Little Anthony and the Imperials, The Virginia Symphony Orchestra, and The Turtle Island String Quartet. 

His recordings have met with tremendous success all over the world including Canada, Australia, The Netherlands, Italy, Switzerland, Japan, Spain, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Estonia, South Korea, and Israel.

Geordie will be joined each Sunday by fellow Chicago Jazz Musicians & Vocalists....
