Roseanna Vitro and the JazzIAm Band draw from a conviction and dedication to jazz music in its many incarnations. The JazzIAm band is a high energy group comprised of four musicians who are powerful improvisers, composers, teachers and performers. This ensemble is a modern gumbo whose flavors include swing, from Duke Ellington to Bill Evans, blues from the Ray Charles Songbook and the exotic melodies and rhythms that form world music, spanning the globe from Brazil to India. JazzIAm's mantra is, “Music is a universal language and it is spiritually healing. Good music played with passion unifies our world and makes it a better place.” Each member is based in New York City and has toured extensively, playing in major festivals and workshops, and spreading the gospel of improvisational music.

For its 2009 Rythm Road tour, the JazzIAm band visited Paraguay, Colombia, Uruguay, Ecuador, and Chile from the end of May through June.
