Monks began as a pop-up listening room in 2016, and has evolved into a state-of-the-art audio and video recording studio and jazz venue in the heart of East Austin. Our curated concert series features the best improvisational jazz groups and musicians the region has to offer.
When the pandemic hit in early 2020, we pivoted, streaming shows live from a single camera in our founder Collin’s living room. Before long, Collin found a space and relocated to a literal brick and mortar in the Spring of 2021.
Monks was voted “Best Virtual Listening Room” by Austin Chronicle readers in 2021, and our in-studio experience is singular. The venue offers an intimate but casual alternative to loud bars and high-cost performance halls. We aim to foster an environment where all people can enjoy the rich culture of jazz.
