We welcome Jab to the airwaves for one hour of "Jazz, but not as we know it." 

Jab has been a Liverpool resident since 1988 after moving to the city in-part because of his love of the Liverpool music scene. He is a professional musician and has been involved in the jazz, rock, funk, hip-hop scene for more than 30 years. He's been promoting Liverpool's famous jazz scene for 10 years now and has built up an understanding of musicians, venues and audiences alike.

Through his musical endeavours, Jab has amassed a large record collection including progressive rock, punk, new wave, hip hop, jazz, classical and acid house.

This month Jab showcases some exceptional, emerging, energetic Liverpool bands from the jazz spectrum – Sweet Beans, Olvine, Bonk! and Bop Kaballa.

Complementing this jazzplosion are tunes from the latest albums by L’Rain and HMLTD.

Jab is also delighted to introduce Maeve as his guest selector with an eclectic mix of fresh Australian records, brought back from Downunder by Maeve from Babe Rainbow, Dear Doonan, Taman Shud, and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard.
