Thank You Volunteers & Donors, You're the Best!

As we complete another successful pledge drive, we look back at what it takes to make this work so well. What we come up with is you, our generous donors who pledge your support to keep this station on the air and the volunteers who get up early every pledge day morning and stay late into the evening helping us answer phones. Every one of you plays a part in making this station what it is, and we truly thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Ch-Ch-Ch Changes!

Fall is in the air and we’ve got some on-air changes coming your way!

After a fun trip in the way-back machine with Summer in the Grotto we say goodbye to Jazzbeaux and welcome host Harry Duncan and In the Soul Kitchen, a funky new show, on Sunday nights from 8-10pm. (Google Harry, he's got a great story). Jazz Sessions with Harry Richard Hall will be heard from 10pm–2am.

NPR has decided to sunset Jazz at Lincoln Center and JazzSet, rolling them into one new show called Jazz Night in America, which KCSM will broadcast on Tuesday nights at 9pm, beginning October 14th. With JazzSet ending, we've decided to run Michael Feinstein's excellent program, Song Travels in its place at 9pm on Mondays beginning October 13th. Please feel free to shoot me an e-mail with your feedback as we move into the Fall & Winter with, what I believe should be creative, compelling, even stellar programming!
