Max Wellman has loved jazz his whole life. That’s why he keeps it alive at Des Moines jazz club, Noce.<\/h5>\n\n

It\u2019s quieter than one might think. Each table in the dimly lit room is filled. People aren\u2019t distracted by their phones. Instead, they\u2019re looking ahead.<\/span><\/p>\n

Royal blue curtains act as the backdrop to the stage. The piano keys are silk, each note dancing after the other. A man takes the microphone, his smooth voice crooning a Sinatra-like melody.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s After Hours with Max Wellman, a late-night performance that takes place every Saturday (except the second of the month) at Noce, a jazz club in Des Moines. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been performing (jazz music) for ten years, but really my whole life I\u2019ve loved it, and I still feel like I\u2019m scratching the surface of it,\u201d Wellman said. It\u2019s an American tradition, pulling inspiration from the country\u2019s history and the talent that was bred here. <\/span><\/p>\n
