WWOZ has released the schedule for the 2021 Jazz Festing in Place radio programming, a nostalgic journey to past festivals as eager music fans await the return of Jazz Fest later this year. The broadcasts will air from Thursday, April 22, to Sunday, April 25, and Thursday, April 29, through Sunday, May 2, on what would have been the traditional dates for the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, which has been postponed until October.

Colloquially known as “the cubes”—a reference to the grid of performances printed in guidebooks—the lineup will include sets from the very first Jazz Fest in 1970, including The Meters, Pete Fountain, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Clifton Chenier, and Duke Ellington. Other highlights will include a set from Danny and Blue Lu Barker in 1989, the Neville Brothers in 2003, Ella Fitzgerald with Stevie Wonder in 1977, Greg Bartholomew with Fats Domino in 1999, and the Allman Brothers in 2010.

WWOZ will add to the schedule in days to come. For the most up-to-date listings, visit wwoz.org or tune in to 90.7 FM in metro New Orleans.
