Kenny Dorham's Backyard

East Austin outdoor music legacy

Kenny Dorham's Backyard is an East Austin outdoor music space run with DiverseArts programming. Blue Monday Blues Jam has drawn players and neighbors for more than twenty-five years with a relaxed BYOB and food-truck vibe.

The yard also hosts the monthly Jazz OUTside series with a free jam after the featured set. Blankets chairs and all-ages listening fit the neighborhood hang. Suggested donations keep the tradition going.

Expect roots jazz blues and community energy under the East Austin sky — not a downtown club polish but a true local jam culture.
