Welcome to Jazz Matters

o complement the music I love, I’ve launched Jazz Matters — a vibrant new space dedicated to the sounds, stories, and soul of Jazz and World Music. This is more than just a blog; it’s a living, breathing platform that will grow to include thoughtful writing, immersive videos, behind-the-scenes interviews, and curated links to music that deserves your ears.

At the heart of Jazz Matters is a passion for sharing. I’m starting by building on the playlists I've already shared — giving you context, background, and insight into the artists and tracks that make them special. But this is just the beginning.

As the site develops, expect deep dives into forgotten gems, spotlight features on new talent, reflections on classic records, and conversations with the people shaping the music — not just the headline artists, but the producers, label founders, archivists, and crate-diggers who work behind the curtain.

This is a journey of discovery — yours, mine, and ours. Whether you're a lifelong jazz head or just starting to explore these rich musical landscapes, I hope you’ll find inspiration here. I invite you to listen, read, share, and most of all, enjoy the ride.

Jazz Matters — because the music, and everything around it, truly does.
