Sounds Coming Out of Florida II



As many of you know - I've been producing and co-hosting a podcast for the last year that focuses on original music being created by musicians living in Florida. Although jazz does well in South Florida; it's a big state where the genre is languishing in some pretty big cities including Jacksonville (!), St. Augustine, Daytona Beach and Gainesville.

The podcast is designed to be that "one more" outlet for the composers & performers here in the state to gain a little exposure; and has done well, with a faithful audience all over the world and consistently high ranking in the jazz category.


For August I decided to buck tradition a bit and program music that requires more listener involvement. If you haven't heard artists like Ron Miller, LaRue Nickelson and Zach Bartholomew, I encourage you to have a listen and see what's really going down here in the South.

If you want to help us in this endeavor - simple things like clicking the Facebook "like" button, or sharing an episode on your wall or twitter go a very long way! Thanks in advance and God bless! - Kenny
