One O’Clock Lab Band
University of North Texas
We are excited to announce the Saturday night performance of Weekend of Jazz 2025: The One O’Clock Lab Band®
The One O’Clock Lab Band® is the premier performing ensemble of the jazz studies program. With seven Grammy Award® nominations (one or more per decade since the 1970s) from a library of over eighty critically acclaimed recordings to date, the One O’Clock is noted for its exceptional individual musicianship and tight ensemble performance. Concerts feature the wealth of compositions and arrangements from the UNT Jazz Library, which contains critical big band repertoire and thousands of musical works written by current and former North Texas students and faculty members. In addition, every performance now showcases music composed or arranged by both prominent and up-and-coming women musicians.
The band has toured internationally, including performances in Russia, Mexico, Switzerland, England, France, The Netherlands, Australia, Portugal, Finland, Norway, Canada, Italy, Germany, Japan, Hong Kong, Poland, Ireland, and Thailand. Additionally, the band has performed at major jazz festivals, including Monterey, Cork/Guinness, Montreux (the first college band to do so), Vienne, North Sea, Spoleto, Pori, and Umbria, and frequently appears at major jazz venues such as Birdland in New York City, Blues Alley in Washington, DC, and Catalina’s in Los Angeles, California. Furthermore, the One O’Clock has been the featured headliner at music conferences, concerts hosted by fine arts series, and numerous colleges and high schools across the United States and abroad.
