SUMMARY:Attention Missoula!  Coming this Saturday - for the first time since the ZACC relocated from the Northside - the basement space in the Leaf   Quiet building, now called The Underground, is reopening for social gatherings, art markets, live music and more!

We are excited to kick-off the reopening of this nostalgic space in an historic railroad building located at 235 North 1st Street West with The Jive &ndash; a hot club jazz band from Missoula, Montana.

Hot Club Jazz, also known as Gypsy Jazz or jazz manouche, is a vibrant style of swing jazz originating in 1930&rsquo;s Paris, popularized by Django Reinhardt and St&eacute;phane Grappelli of the Quintette du Hot Club de France. This style of music is characterized by acoustic instrumentation&mdash;typically lead guitar, rhythm guitars, violin, and bass&mdash;without drums, featuring high-energy, improvised, and rhythmic swing, blending Roma musical traditions with American swing. 

This is a jazz scene like nothing Missoula has experienced in an environment reminiscent of the Speakeasies popularized during the prohibition era in the United Sates (1920 &ndash; 1933); all wrapped up in a cozy underground vibe in a railroad building as old as 1915, itself.

Think velvet furniture, deep jeweled tones, dark corners and a secretive vibe.

So, bring your dancing shoes to help rejuvenate a long-loved space that has a long history of hosting music as far back as the 1980&rsquo;s, and maybe even longer.

To help keep live music alive in alternative venues, please consider donating $10-15.

See you there, Missoula!
