Thankfully, our equipment is a bit more modern than what is pictured. But  do you see those happy smiles? That's how we look when a great song is playing on the air, which is most of the time.  I hope you can support our cause, which is jazz plus - the plus referring to our great evening lineup of folk, blues, and other types of music practically ignored by commercial media. Call us between 9am and 12pm during the SJB to pledge. The number is: 508-752-0700. If you would like to pledge online, click here. Thanks so much for tuning in to WICN and the Sunday Jazz Brunch.  Best,

Spotlight On: Helio Alves Air Date: 6/21/2026  on 90.5 WICN 9am-12pm ET If you miss the air date: click here for the archives for up to two weeks .   On this edition of the Sunday Jazz Brunch, we'll take a deep dive into the music of   pianist Hélio Alves. I'll play for you releases where he is the lead and also where he is a sideman. I've enjoyed just about everything this artist does, and so this show is quite easy for me to put together.    I would like some feedback on this new feature in the Sunday Jazz Brunch. Please send me email at marty@wicn.org and let me know what you think, before or after the show!   Thanks so much for listening to the Sunday Jazz Brunch.   Best,   Marty    Photo of Helio Alves by Mitch Bleier,  mb626rsd@gmail.com or @mitch.bleier on Instagram.      HOUR ONE: Contemplative Morning 🎹  Hélio Alves-Musica-09 Chan's Song-2010 Harvie S\Bright-Dawn 2026\Waltz for Vartan Blue Moods\D...
