Mystic Blues Jazz Quintet has a classic style that connects with audiences across the age spectrum. While many of the talented musicians in this group have enjoyed their fair share of musical experiences around the country the phrase, “there’s no place like home” comes to mind to describe their dedication to the local jazz scene here in South Bend. All of them Michciana natives, they formally became Mystic Blues in 2007 and perform locally in clubs and various venues throughout the year. While Mystic Blues brings together some very diverse professional backgrounds and personalities, there’s no question that they have one very obvious thing in common: a driving passion for jazz!
