Antique and Modern Music New Orleans Style: Corey
Henry and the Treme Funktet
It’s our curated mix of trad and modern jazz, blues, soul, and country from Cannonball Adderley and Betty Carter, Guitar Slim and Slim Harpo. We’ll come in out of the blues pouring down like rain and get to the sunny side of the street with Peggy Lee and Benny Goodman, party with Count Basie and Ella Fitzgerald, and walk on with Waylon Jennings and Nancy Sinatra. Then a live genre-blending, but not bending, set with New Orleans’ trombonist Corey Henry and the Treme Funktet.

Airing Thursday 4 PM - 5 PM and Saturday 6 AM to 7 AM
"No Regrets: The Music and Spirit of Billie Holiday," examines Holiday's early life, the evolution of her singing style, how her haunting rendition of "Strange Fruit" played a vital role in the birth of the Civil Rights movement and other topics related to her astonishing career.
The focus throughout is Holiday's singular musical artistry, her independent spirit, how her unique approach to her music became one of the strongest influences in the evolution of jazz, and how she continues to influence performers today.
The series includes interviews with musicians and scholars including: Karrin Allyson, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Angela Davis, Lara Downes, Dr. Farah Jasmine Griffin, Corky Hale, Alan Harris, Rene Marie, Professor Robert O'Meally, Dan Morgenstern, Fred Plotkin, Adam Clayton Powell III, Beth Roars, Dianne Reeves, Phil Schaap, Andromeda Turre and Casandra Wilson. The program also includes archived interviews collected by Linda Kuehl including Count Basie, Teddy Wilson, Silvia Syms, Jo Jones, Milt Gabler, John Hammond, Billie Taylor, Mal Waldron, Bobby Tucker and others.

Saturday, June 6: Diane Blue All-Star Quartet at the Frontroom
Boston’s Diane Blue is a “multi-talented performer who’s equally at home belting out a blues standard or cutting loose with a ferocious harmonica solo.” (Bill Van Siclen, Providence Journal).
Her performances are captivating, charismatic and heartfelt, whether fronting her own world-class band or singing alongside master Bluesman Ronnie Earl. Ms. Blue, the first female member of Ronnie Earl and the Broadcasters, is prominently featured on the band’s most recent six celebrated records, including co-writing credits.
Diane’s reputation as a sensational entertainer has led her all over the United States and tours of Europe where audiences enjoy her traditional and original songs alike.
A multi-nominated and award-winning artist, she has shared the stage with many greats including Muddy Waters’ guitarist Luther “Guitar Jr.” Johnson, Irma Thomas, Toni Lynn Washington and the late Big Jack Johnson of Clarksdale, Mississippi who called Diane a “monster on the harp.”
Cliff Goodwin will be joining the band on lead guitar! A special show indeed with our hometown hero gracing the FrontRoom stage! Cliff’s resume is extensive with a dozen years on stage with Joe Cocker being a major highlight! You can hear his musical life story thru an interview series here at wcuw.org/interviews!
Diane’s latest album, “Diane Blue All-star Band: Live at the Fallout Shelter, November 26, 2022” (Regina Royale Records) was produced by Lorne Entress and Diane Blue. It features Chris Vitarello on guitar, Dave Limina on Hammond B3 organ, and Lorne Entress on drums, and was recorded live at the Fallout Shelter in Norwood, MA.
Showtime: Saturday, June 6, 7:00 pm. Doors open at 6:30. Tickets $20 cash or Venmo at the door.
Light refreshments will be served. Or, visit Fantastic Pizza/Grub Guru next door for pizza, Indian food, and more, to eat-in or to bring back.
The WCUW Frontroom is located at 910 Main St., Worcester MA. Parking in the Clark University lot across the street, or on the street.
Via the phone, Diane Blue will be on the Jukebox of Americana Friday June 5th at 12 Noon!
