2025 Newport Jazz Festival Preview
Festival season is here! As you're making your summer travel plans, the 2025 Newport Jazz Festival line-up is one to consider putting on your list. Here at KUVO, we've had some of the featured artists drop by our studios like Dianne Reeves, Christian McBride, Yussef Dayes, Kenny Garrett, New Jazz Underground and others.
Introduced as “NEA Jazz Master and homegirl,” Dianne Reeves visited The Morning Set to chat and play some of her favorite tunes in anticipation for her recent performance at Denver Jazz Fest. Check it out here.
New Jazz Underground brought a swinging set to our studios, creative and innovative exploring the intersection of jazz tradition and modernism. This performance is now posted on our KUVO YouTube Channel.
Christian McBride regularly hosts Jazz Night in America, broadcasted every Sunday night at 8p.m. MT on KUVO. When in Denver, he usually visits our studios - here's the last time he was in town for a performance.
Kenny Garrett joined KUVO on The Morning Set to talk about his work as a jazz mentor and his latest release “Sounds from the Ancestors” ahead of his show in Denver.
On a US Tour, Yussef Dayes joined us in-studio for a conversation around the UK Jazz Scene and what he was cooking up for his show in Denver. Here he is pictured with Monday Night Jazz Odyssey Host alldaywes.
