About

The Berklee Beantown Jazz Festival has become a major cultural landmark in Boston, offering attendees “the sort of hard choices people have to make at Newport and other top festivals,” according to the Boston Globe. The festival was founded by Darryl Settles, owner of Darryl’s Corner Bar & Kitchen and president of D’Ventures Limited, and has been produced by Berklee since 2007.

Performers in 2017 include Jazzmeia Horn, Emily Estafan, Camille Thurman and the Darrell Green Trio, Mehmet Ali Sanlikol & Whatsnext? and several others.
