Swing Is In The Air
Sunday October 12th, 2014 with Karen Oxorn
Count-down to MJF 2014

With Merrickville's Jazz Fest (MJF) less than a week from opening, I am pleased to welcome MJF Co-organizer Peggy Holloway in-studio to chat about the festival and who is coming to perform. I'll also feature a pre-recorded interview with Denielle Bassels, a rising star on the Toronto scene, who will be traveling to Merrickville with her band to appear on the Saturday night. All the details about MJF are available online at www.merrickville'sjazzfest.com. I'll spin some great tracks for your enjoyment as well!

Thanks for everyone who tuned in this afternoon and wrote it too. Although I had not trouble in the studio, some folks wrote to say that they could not access the website so it must have shut down for a little while. thanks for checking!
