From early pioneers Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, Dave Brubeck, Tony Bennett, and Miles Davis to contemporary masters Herbie Hancock, Wynton Marsalis, Diana Krall, Trombone Shorty, Norah Jones, Terence Blanchard, Samara Joy, and Snarky Puppy, Monterey Jazz has presented nearly every major jazz artist over the past six decades and become synonymous with jazz itself.
