About Us

The Friends of John Coltrane, Inc. work tirelessly to ensure the very best artists, representing contemporary, modern and mainstream jazz, are brought to the stage each year at the John Coltrane International Jazz and Blues Festival, making the festival the premiere entertainment destination in the Southeast. Throughout the organization’s history, members have engaged leaders of the business, arts, civic and nonprofit communities to celebrate the legacy of iconic saxophonist, composer, and High Point native son, John Coltrane.

The hard work is worth every bit of the sweat and yes, even occasionally, a tear or two. Thanks to you, the reward comes with the growing audience attendance and national recognition. Thank you for visiting our website.  We hope you will join us for the Festival this year!
