Welcome to
Reimagining Worship Through Jazz
Mountclear Jazz is a collective of world-class musicians breathing new life into beloved christian songs through smooth, sophisticated jazz arrangements. Inspired by the legacy of groups like Yellowjackets, Snarky Puppy, and the records we grew up on from Brentwood Jazz, we aim to create fresh, soul-stirring interpretations that honor both the spirit of the original songs and the richness of the smooth jazz tradition.
Our debut single, "In the Presence of Jehovah," offers a lush, instrumental take on the beloved worship favorite by Geron Davis—crafted with care, groove, and reverence. It's the first of many in a series designed to bring beauty, inspiration, and peace to listeners of faith and jazz alike.
