The Jazz River Hot Fun in the Summertime Share
It’s already 80 degrees. You wake up early in the morning when it’s quiet and before the sun gets too high in the sky. Throw on as little as possible and step outdoors. Maybe you feel the soft breezes across the Caribbean or the sexy steamy humidity of the French Quarter. Maybe you get swallowed by the heat in Central and South Africa or the asphalt street corners and front stoops in any American city. Wherever you turn, it’s summer.
Whether Ghanaian highlife, Cuban Son, American funk, Cool Jazz, Brazilian Bossa Nova, Borcia Boogaloo, or Island calypso, music the world over tells us it’s summer and time to have a good time. We’ve all been cooped up for more than a year and people are ready for some hot fun. And so is The Jazz River which presents two weeks of Hot Fun in the Summertime.
Since 1985, KUVO has provided a rare blend of music & news. We broadcast the best in Jazz, Latin Jazz & Blues in addition to 17 locally produced, culturally diverse programs.
The Jazz River Women of the World-2 Share
In celebration of International Women’s History Month, The Jazz River takes another journey across the many and varied musical tributaries written, produced and performed by women.
Expect to hear vintage jazz from the 1940s as well as modern masters. Performers from Peru, France, Benin, Japan, and Portugal. Big band swing, Country Jazz, Indo-Latin and Electric-Jazz fusions.
In a field that has long been dominated by men, hear how women are every bit the equal to men, and bring us enormous pleasure and joy.
Tune in
Sunday, March 14, at 5 pm for The Jazz River with Matthew Goldwasser on KUVO JAZZ.
