As the aging population enjoys better health and a longer life expectancy, we are looking for new hobbies and interests to expand our horizons.

For those who have always enjoyed live music, jazz clubs are becoming hugely popular venues for the Over55s age group. You can get out of the house, meet with friends, have dinner or drinks, and do something a little out of the ordinary.

Jazz takes many forms, from Dixieland to modern. Its history is rich and, unlike other types of music, is wholly American in origin. There is bound to be a style that will appeal to everyone. Some clubs specialize in a particular kind of music, while others run the gamut. Try several different places to see which you like best.

One of the great things about seeing live jazz is that it is energetic and exciting without being too loud! If you were a denizen of rock concerts in your youth – and many Baby Boomers were – you may worry that live music will leave you exhausted, with ringing ears! While some bands are louder than others, many play at a level that allows for conversation during performances. As we get older, protecting our hearing is important, and we have a lot more fun if we can hear what our friends are saying to us!

Jazz clubs tend to be run by music lovers – and you will find that many of them are Over55s as well. The owners are often at the performances, and love to get to know their customers. Don’t be surprised if he or she stops by your table to see how you like the music. If you return to the same place repeatedly, you will likely be recognized as a regular and will form relationships with the owners and managers. This can really improve your experience, as you are given preference in seating.

Whether you are just stopping by for a drink, or looking for dinner, there is no doubt a club near you which will fit your evening plans. Many clubs advertise specifically to encourage customers in the Over55 age group. If you’ve never tried a jazz club, put it on your list! Enjoying your favorite music, or learning about a style you’ve never encountered before, is a great retirement activity. Whether you want to have a date with your spouse or have an exciting girls’ or boys’ night out, jazz is the perfect balance of fun and relaxing.
