Listen to Smooth Pizzazz Radio Now!

Here at Smooth Pizzazz it's not about hype...it's about the music! Our Jazz Radio program features the top jazz musicians in the world! On Smooth Pizzazz it's all about the music! We play music from independent artists/labels and we play music from the major record labels.  Tune in to "Smooth Pizzazz" for some the very best Jazz you will find anywhere on this planet! 

We prefer jazz that is energetic...Jazz with Pizzazz! (No "snooze" jazz allowed!) Snooze jazz can be defined as "music that helps you go to sleep"! Most of the music we play on Smooth Pizzazz would not be considered tame enough for the majority of FM Radio Smooth Jazz Stations out there! The focus here is on the writing, spiritual energy, musicianship, groove, vibe and the overall impact it has on the listener.  

We celebrate and promote the infinite variety of jazz music and our playlists reflects that! Within the framework of jazz music there is room for a myriad of styles and influences. Therefore we do not promote one style of jazz only. Neither do we discriminate on this basis either. Instead, we broadcast Jazz in its many forms, encouraging an open heart, mind, and attitude of acceptance and appreciation for the creative flow and musical ideas of others!
