Happy Pride Month from the Mid America Freedom Band! 🏳️‍🌈🎶

Pride has always been about visibility, community, and showing up exactly as you are. We’re proud to be part of Kansas City’s LGBTQ+ community and to create a space where musicians, performers, and supporters can make music together in an environment built on belonging.

As we celebrate Pride Month, we’re looking back at some of our favorite moments from last year’s KC Pride Parade and getting ready to do it all again this Saturday at KC Pride 2026! The parade steps off at 11:00 AM and kicks off a full weekend of PrideFest celebrations at Theis Park.

Whether you're marching, cheering from the sidelines, or seeing us for the first time, we’d love to celebrate with you. Come wave, sing along, and help us fill Kansas City with music, joy, and Pride.

Happy Pride Month, Kansas City! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤎

If you enjoyed the Mighty Mo Jazz Orchestra's show last Friday, you can catch our special guest, Knotty Orchid, and Risqué Revelry this Saturday, May 23rd for their show Paris of the Plains!

Jazz and Burlesque have a wonderful KC history growing up together in the early 20th century, and we love seeing that tradition continue!

FIVE DAYS!!

Five days until the Lavender Flamingo opens its doors and we make some memories that nobody in that room is going to forget.

Full big band. Two packed sets. Three absolute icons from the Kansas City Burlesque scene. The most exclusive jazz club in KC. And honey, it’s FREE!

Friday, May 15th @ 7:30pm | St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church | Free | Get there early!!

The Lavender Flamingo is not a bar. It's not a club. It doesn't have a Yelp page.

Every time the Mighty Mo Jazz Orchestra performs, we transform the undercroft of St. Andrew's Episcopal Church into our own private jazz club. The kind of room that makes a big band sound like one of KC's best-kept secrets...

On May 15th, the Lavender Flamingo opens for Jazz After Dark.

Free admission. Very limited capacity. You'll want to arrive early.
