Welcome to the Jazz Society of Oregon's Hall of Fame!

Each year we honor an outstanding local musician by naming them to the Jazz Society of Oregon Hall of Fame.

These musicians have earned a reputation for excellence in jazz performance in Oregon and beyond. In addition to jazz performance, each has also contributed to furthering jazz education, and has been a strong advocate for America's original art form.

The newest member of the JSO Hall of Fame is pianist, composer, vocalist and educator Darrell Grant. He was inducted into the Jazz Society of Oregon's Hall of Fame at the First Jazz concert on April 5, 2008
