Our Operators are Standing By

Air Date: 6/28/2026 on 90.5 WICN 9am-12pm ET

Thankfully, our equipment is a bit more modern than what is pictured. But  do you see those happy smiles? That's how we look when a great song is playing on the air, which is most of the time. 

I hope you can support our cause, which is jazz plus - the plus referring to our great evening lineup of folk, blues, and other types of music practically ignored by commercial media.

Call us between 8am and 12pm during the SJB to pledge. The number is: 508-752-0700. If you would like to pledge online, click here.

Thanks so much for tuning in to WICN and the Sunday Jazz Brunch. 

Best,
