š Welcome to This Weekās Groove
Fam, community, movement ā¤ļø
We are officially standing in that beautiful in-between moment when the year slows down, the music feels deeper, and intention matters more than ever ⨠It is Monday, December 29, just days away from welcoming a brand-new year. Love Music Love Wine Radio is moving through this transition with purpose, warmth, and soul.
This week is about closing 2025 with gratitude and groove while gently opening the door to what 2026 is about to become š¶š·ā We have two final shows before New Yearās Eve. We pause, breathe, and reset before launching into the new year with clarity and intention. Expect obscure funk, late-night soulful blues, reflective listening, and space to really feel the music.
We are also quietly building what comes next. SIPS & Sounds Monthly is in motion with details coming very soon š·š¶ The Jazz Train project is warming up for a spring 2026 launch šš· And our community continues to grow deeper, not louder, grounded in music first, culture always, and people above everything.
This week also carries a powerful final statement. Jazz is not Dead EP.4 is our closing jazz chapter of 2025. It lands fearless, expansive, and full of life š· From the cosmic brilliance of Herbie Hancock and Weather Report to the funk authority of Maceo Parker, Grover Washington Jr., Marcus Miller, and Bob James, this finale stretches across jazz fusion milestones and future-facing grooves. Billy Cobham, Pat Metheny, Jean Luc Ponty, Jaco Pastorius, Medeski Martin and Wood, Jamiroquai, Guru, St Germain, Thievery Corporation, Kokoroko, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, Nicholas Payton, spiritual jazz, Afro Caribbean energy, rare grooves, and modern jazz funk all sit together in one long seasonal embrace.
This is movement. This is history. This is joy. Pour something good. Turn it up. Gather your people. Jazz is not dead. It is alive and still leading the conversation š¶
