Welcome to the home of Freedom Jazz Dance© and jazz raconteur DJ Ken Hohman. The Freedom Jazz Dance radio show airs on Sundays from 5-7 pm on WDCE 90.1 FM in Richmond, Virginia with live stream at www.wdce.org.

Freedom Jazz Dance features chance-taking artists, unsung performers and overlooked recordings throughout the history of jazz. Rare 78s and LPs share the spotlight with the very latest in improvisational jazz. Exclusive segments include Records From Aunt Ruth© where listeners are invited to call in with their trash-or-treasure vote and Two-Of-A-Kind® where I compare two different versions of a singular jazz composition. Studio line is 804.289.UR90.

Playlists, artist links and archived shows will all soon appear on this site in hopes of encouraging a free exchange of ideas, recommendations, raves, disses, reviews and all things JAZZ.
