About Bandstand Presents:

Evolving from a single quarantine project (“Off The Bandstand”), Bandstand Presents is an Austin-based production company, committed to the inclusivity, visibility, and collaboration of jazz scenes across the nation. 

Founded by vocalist, bandleader, lyricist and producer, Christian Wiggs, and producer Kirk Word, Bandstand highlights not only the brilliant talents and contributions of these jazz musicians, but celebrates the personalities that are integral to the art they create.

In Fall of 2021, Bandstand Presents began producing its residency series featuring guest artists from Austin and beyond in episodes of “Off The Bandstand”, special live performances at Monks Jazz and Elephant Room, and guest collaboration with the Christian Wiggs Big Band.

As educational and musical investment are paramount, Bandstand Presents has facilitated partnerships with developmental institutions such as Texas State University and the Women in Jazz Association, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded by Pamela and Kevin Hart.

Previous guests have included Bryan Carter, Mathis Picard, Dan Chmielinski, Tatiana Mayfield, Aubrey Logan, Kate Kortum, & Benny Benack.
