Jazzhane

jazzhane is a Zurich-based music project that’s been building a community around sounds from the Silk Road and beyond. For the past four seasons, they’ve brought over 16,000 music lovers together to hear more than 100 artists, including researchers and writers. The focus is on music that’s been created, rediscovered, and reinterpreted along that route: jazz, Mediterranean folk, sometimes gitanos, oftentimes psychedelic. All under one roof, one house, one hane. The space itself is more of a vibe than a typical venue. There’s a kiosk for music from the Silk Road and beyond, with curated episodes from people like co-founder Anıl, who blends melancholic tunes with Andalusian cadence, Rumba, or Cumbia, and Mara Pavic, who digs up rare gems from the 70s. You can also shop their Kilim merch, designed in Zurich and Istanbul, made from 95% organic cotton. What makes it worth a visit is the honesty of it. They’re not trying to be everything to everyone. They’re building a community of music love…
