Java Jazz has been performing vocal and instrumental stylings of traditional jazz standards and originals, including swing, blues, latin, ballads, and funk/jazz-rock in Austin since 1996. Many engagements utilize the core (trio) configuration usually comprising keyboard/bass, woodwinds, and guitar. The other common configuration adds bass and drums, however, just about every possible configuration from 2-piece to 5-piece has been used for various performances depending upon budgetary and venue requirements, and patron preferences.

Java Jazz has performed at venues such as Nutty Brown Cafe, Bergstrom Airport, Manuel's, Y-Bar & Grill, The Lakeway Inn, Barton Creek Country Club, Central Market Cafe, Hickory Street Grill, Mozart's Coffeehouse, Barnes & Noble, NXNW, J's Bistro, Borders, Speakeasy, Caucus Club, Sam Hill's Restaurant, Jazz on 6th Street, The Motorola Marathon, and many others.  Java Jazz also performs many private engagements from large functions such as weddings and convention mixers to small in-home parties such as birthdays and Mardi-Gras celebrations, and any just about any other kind of event where fun and good music mix.

Java Jazz was awarded first place in the 1997 Round Rock Jazz & Blues Festival.
