KNKX’s Abe Beeson hosts monthly student DJ's year-round in our studios to share an hour of their favorite jazz. You can learn about past student DJ's, and hear their segments on this page. We also invite students from regional middle, high school, and college jazz programs into our studios for recorded studio sessions which we post on this page. Check out our archived in-studio student performances on this page, and on our YouTube channel. If you’re a jazz student who’s interested in being a KNKX student DJ, please contact Brenda Goldstein-Young at bgoldstein@knkx.org.
