Iowa City Jazz Festival Memorial Day Broadcast

Danilo Perez, Chris Potter, and Ben Street onstage at the 2019 Iowa City Jazz Festival

We kick off the summer of 2020 with a look back at one of 2019’s biggest jazz events, the Iowa City Jazz Festival. Listen all day for last year’s memorable performances, plus our exclusive backstage conversations with all the headliners.

Our broadcast is a little bittersweet, as we learned Friday that the 2020 festival won’t take place, at least not in the format we are used to. Please enjoy the 2019 performances as we all look forward to gathering again in downtown Iowa City in 2021.
