Spring Fund Drive SP – 陽

Mon, Apr 28, 2025

Week 2 of WRIR’s Spring Fund Drive — and your support can take us to the next level! I’ll be LIVE on air AGAIN today, spinning more Japanese jazz, this time focusing on the contemporary and frontier sounds from 2000s and beyond. Tune in and, if you haven’t yet, consider making a pledge — every donation makes a real difference for us, and ultimately, for all of us. 1pm-3 ET on @wrir97.3fm or streaming worldwide at wrir.org. Thank YOU!
