With the current lockdown due to Coronavirus, Jazz London Radio will dust off the archives and feature some of the excellent interviews we have put together since the station started broadcasting in 2014.
Starting week beginning 20th April, we will feature three artists per week. We will announce which three artists will be the featured artists of the week every Sunday. Not only will we run their interviews but play their music throughout the week.
This week’s featured artists:
Wednesday 22nd July 8pm: Fraser Fifield interview with Andrea Vicari from November 2015
Thursday 23rd July 7pm: Lucy Dixon interview with Laurie Burnette from August 2017
Friday 24th July 8pm: Miriam Aziz interview with Laurie Burnette from December 2018
Due to circumstances beyond our control, please note the Jazz London Radio All Stars at the Rich Mix in Bethnal Green has been moved from 22nd March to 13th September 2020. Rich Mix will contact purchasers for an exchange or refund. More details to come for the re-scheduled gig. Thanks for your understanding 🙂
