The Nightside: Annual Easter Guitar Pull

Join us this Easter Sunday, April 5, on KUVO JAZZ 89.3 FM for a special holiday edition of The Nightside. From 9 p.m. to midnight, we are proud to present our Annual Easter Guitar Pull, a three-hour deep dive into the most exciting new voices in the world of jazz guitar. This year’s broadcast moves beyond the traditional standards to spotlight the bold, modern innovations of a generation that is truly redefining the instrument.

Our curated lineup features an incredible array of rising stars, each bringing a unique sonic fingerprint to the airwaves. We’ll explore the "liquid soul" sounds of Silas Short, the sophisticated compositions of Andrew Renfroe, and the mind-bending fingerstyle virtuosity of Italian phenom Matteo Mancuso. The showcase also highlights the genre-blurring, blues-infused artistry of Candice Ivory and the melodic, atmospheric beauty of Ella Zirina, offering a comprehensive look at the global state of the craft.

Whether you are a lifelong aficionado or a guitar enthusiast looking for your next obsession, this program is the perfect way to cap off your holiday weekend. 

Tune in locally at 89.3 FM and join us as we celebrate the strings, soul, and storytelling of these phenomenal newcomers on the next generation of The Nightside with Andy O'.
