The Jazz Conceptions Orchestra
From its inception at Kokopelli's Jazz Club in Savannah, Georgia, the group was the resident ensemble of the club, performing a series of concerts that included collaboration with Nashville vocalist Annie Sellick.

With members currently living in Florida, Chicago, New York and Boston, the JCO frequently gathers together to perform at various locations around the US and beyond, including most recently the Iridium Jazz Club, marking their NYC debut.
