In 2005, WJS moved to Sugarfactory.[1] [5] Their 10 year anniversary was celebrated in May 2012 with an event at Melkweg, which was broadcast live on NPO Radio 6.[5] Earlier that year, the record label Wicked Jazz Sounds Recordings was created, starting with the debut album of Kris Berry.[6] [5]
The collective announced in December 2018 that their 14-year tennure at Sugarfactory would come to an end, due to uncertainty over the venue's future, moving their events across the street to Melkweg instead.[7] [8] The Sugarfactory venue filed for bankruptcy in January 2019.[9]
