Jon Batiste opened a jazz club in the Bahamas that celebrates the cultural connections of the African diaspora. After leaving The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, Batiste sought to creatively connect with global influences and found the rhythms of the Bahamas reminiscent of New Orleans music. His club at Baha Mar is designed to honor historic clubs that once thrived in the region during the 1940s and 50s, reviving local jazz culture within a luxurious setting that includes a wide array of resort amenities.
Jon Batiste's new jazz club in the Bahamas aims to revive the local music scene while celebrating the cultural connections between the Caribbean and New Orleans.
The 12,900-square-foot club, opened in January 2025, reflects the glorious history of Bahamian jazz while providing a modern venue for musical collaboration.
