The Nazz Jazz Big Band (aka The Jerry Nelson Orchestra) – Originated with a group of players from Denver First Nazarene Church. Founded in the early 1980s with a smaller ensemble, called Jericho Brass. Today’s group, with traditional swing band flavor, is composed of a full section of saxes, trumpets, trombones, and rhythm. The group also incorporates choral brass, Latin sounds, and even a touch of country. The group’s church concerts include moments of genuine worship that leaves its audiences more than entertained. Currently, the group is working on a CD, slated for early, 2005 release. Contact: Jerry Nelson, (303) 789-4494.
