Born out of the uncertainty of pandemic life, the Pet-Friendly Jazz Collective began as a way to bring an organic musical experience to front porches around Denver. Today, captained by the drum/guitar duo of Calvin Davis and Sam Valdez, Pet Friendly takes advantage of a wealth of local talent, featuring some of the community’s best improvisers. Whether it be the music of Miles Davis or Stevie Wonder, a porch concert or a private event, our mission will always be to bring the community together around art, provide opportunities for musicians, and to have fun doing it.
