The Pianist That Could

Jazz, TX is an intimate live music venue in San Antonio's Historic Pearl District where world-class jazz, exceptional hospitality, and elevated dining come together. Founded by pianist and bandleader Doc Watkins in 2016, the club was created to introduce more people to the magic of live jazz through an experience that appeals to all the senses.

Building on the success of Jazz, TX, Doc later opened Doc's Jazz Club in Houston's historic Tower Theatre. Inspired by the same commitment to great music and hospitality, the club blends the elegance of a classic supper club with a modern live music experience. Today, both venues serve as cultural gathering places where guests can enjoy unforgettable performances, outstanding food and drinks, and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps them coming back.
