Jazzed! The Philly Pops Big Band embodies the vibrant big-band tradition rooted in Philadelphia's rich jazz history. Formed from members of The Philly Pops orchestra, this ensemble delivered bold, swinging performances that spotlighted the city’s mid-20th-century jazz legacy. Though The Philly Pops dissolved in 2023, the musicians carried the flame forward as No Name Pops (NNP) and later revived the Philly Pops name, continuing a season of dynamic concerts across iconic venues.
