<P> During the 1990s and early 2000s, there was a noticeable trend back towards jazz by many popular performers who had been associated with the rock genre . Most notable amongst these were Kate Ceberano, Dannielle Gaha and The Whitlams who all released traditional jazz or jazz - influenced albums within a very short period of time . </P> <P> Compared to the latter years of the 1900s jazz lost some of its impetus in Australia in the first decade of the twenty - first century . However it is still very visible in a number of venues including Melbourne's Bennett's Lane Jazz Club and concerts in Sydney staged by groups such as Sydney Improvised Music Association, Venue 505, The Jazzgroove Association, and The Jazz Action Society . The Melbourne Jazz Co-operative since 2007 has run three jazz concerts a week in Melbourne, the most active jazz presenter organisation in Australia . </P> <P> In the 2010s, jazz music continues to be a valid and visible form of expression in Australia . Although jazz is virtually ignored by mainstream media there is considerable coverage in alternative media outlets such as community radio, and from ABC Jazz digital radio . </P> <P> ABC Jazz broadcasts jazz 24 hours a day on DAB+ Digital Radio, Digital TV, online at abc.net.au/jazz and on the ABC Radio mobile app . It broadcasts original presented shows from respected MCs Jessica Nicholas, Mal Stanley and Gerry Koster, as well as weekly featured albums, live sets and interviews . ABC Jazz also records local acts and broadcasts a considerable amount of local content in the regular playlist . </P>
