This funky little
club is a legend in the Midwestern USA. Patrons
listen; they don't dance. It's an old fashioned nightspot
in the
hometown of the great Art Tatum. And it draws great
talent from
Chicago, Detroit and the very lively jazz scene in Toledo
itself.
A fine tradition.

It is situated in the center of Novi Sad,
in Natoseviceva St. 4. The main goal of
the line up schedule is to promote and expand
urban, jazz inspired culture. Even twelve
years ago the club was recognized as the
only club in Vojvodina with regular jazz
line up or theme nights. The Jazz Club Wheels
was called after the Aleksandar Dujin jazz
album from 1993 "Wheelz Around the World",
symbolically representing time and music
travel going on in the club. From the start
Jazz Club was the place where the gigs were
organized not because of the money and engagement,
but because of the pleasure, experimenting
and promoting. All the musicians in Novi
Sad took part in that. On the menu are tapas
different taste and cheeses.
