Radio and Jazz have gone hand in hand for nearly 100 years. This week Collette talks to three broadcasters, Tony Minvielle, Chris Hawkins and Jaymz Bee, about bringing jazz talent, old and new, to their audiences.
Musician and actor Collette Cooper delves into the rich history of female artists who helped develop Blues and Jazz - not just the vocalists like Billie Holiday and Bessie Smith but also the composers, band leaders and soloists. She speaks to broadcasters, writers and many of the up and coming artists on the UK Blues and Jazz scene today to find out what impact women have had and continue to have on this staple of popular culture.
