Here we are after the MLB All-Star Break and Bastille Day, with the 2024 NEA Jazz Masters announced (congratulations, Willard Jenkins!, a JJA co-founder!)
and jazz fest season on us. JJA members are busy, naturally, hearing the music of now, writing, photographing and broadcasting about it.
New members include Francisco Rocky Garcia, Arizona-based photographer; Veronica Johnson, writing from Redford, Michigan, and Yugen Rashad, writer-audio producer-radio show host and 2023 JJA Jazz Hero of Portland, Oregon. Welcome, all. Check out what other JJArs are doing on page 2 ——->>>
