Baker's Keyboard Lounge
Best Jazz Club in Detroit · MI
Billed as the world's oldest jazz club
Baker's Keyboard Lounge, booking jazz since 1934, is billed as the oldest continuously operating jazz club in the world. The intimate, 99-seat Art Deco room on Livernois — with its distinctive piano-keyboard bar — has hosted Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, and generations of Detroit players.
Pairing live jazz with soul food, Baker's remains a living monument to Detroit's musical history, a room where the sight lines and the sound are as close as jazz gets.
