Expanded Format + More Music = Oasis Contemporary
Jazz Awards

With jazz music moving from the limitations of
radio playlists to wide open internet radio and live streaming, the
music is more diverse than ever and the Oasis Contemporary Jazz Awards
will reflect this exciting shift.

There will be new Award
categories and new nominees and players in addition to the great music
and performances of previous Oasis Awards shows.
