This this the place to turn for insight in jazz from two highly respected voices. Nate and Greg’s interviews get to the heart of things in a way that many interviewers don’t, and their conversations are always illuminating. The Late Set picked up right where their previous podcast, Jazz United, left off.
These are great conversations!
Nate and Greg engage in insightful discussion with current jazz musicians as well as some who have been around for many years. Really worth a listen if you are a jazz lover.
