Tuesday is Jazzy on KTRU! Join us every Tuesday from 5 to 7 p.m. central for KTRU Jazz.
Host DJ Lee brings the Heavy Stacks each week as we dig back for everything from the Swingin’ 20s through the Hard Bop 60s to today’s finest ground-breakers.
The Jazz Show is a tradition at KTRU and we’re proud to carry the torch as Houston’s finest weekly Jazz program. Often featuring all-vinyl sets, live in-studio performances, and interviews with local artists, KTRU Jazz is your weekly dose of musical meditation.
