Collection: Jazz is My Religion

The Jazz Is My Religion collection takes its name and spirit from Ted Joans’ iconic 1960s poem, a passionate declaration of jazz as more than music—as faith, ritual, and way of life. Joans, a surrealist poet, painter, and trumpet player, captured the essence of jazz as a force that transcends the stage, shaping identity and community. Our collection carries this legacy forward, celebrating jazz not as heritage alone, but as living testimony. Each piece is a reminder that jazz remains a source of devotion, defiance, and creative freedom.
