About Monks Jazz

Monks began as a pop-up listening room, and has evolved into a state-of-the-art audio and video recording studio and event space in the heart of East Austin. Our curated concert series features the best improvisational jazz groups and musicians the region has to offer. When the pandemic hit in early 2020, we pivoted, streaming shows live from a single camera in our founder Collin’s living room. Before long, Collin found a space for rent that was not only suitable for his piano repair business, but was large enough to host livestreams from full bands. The East Austin Piano Shop, and the new home of Monks Jazz, was born. The Monks studio has since relocated to a literal brick and mortar space, which was our dream from the beginning. Monks was voted “Best Virtual Listening Room” by Austin Chronicle readers in 2021, and our in-studio experience is singular. The venue offers an intimate but casual alternative to loud bars and high-cost performance halls. We aim to foster an environment where all people can enjoy the rich culture of jazz.
