holiday season

There's a bit of a whirlwind story, with ties to the Netherlands, behind Roosevelt High School's annual performance of The Jazz Nutcracker.

The holiday season brings joy, family gatherings and gift-giving, but it also leaves behind significant environmental impacts.

For the first time since 2012, a production of the beloved Black Nativity returns to Seattle's Intiman Theatre and engages the audience in a new way.

To celebrate the holiday season, KNKX compiled two festive playlists featuring songs by your favorite jazz and blues artists.

Veteran musician José Hernández brought his mariachi ensemble to Seattle for a Christmas concert at the Moore Theater.

Urban Craft Uprising is one of the biggest holiday makers markets in the Pacific Northwest. Now in its 19th year, organizers curate a mix of new and returning vendors.

Amazon said on Tuesday that it will hire 250,000 full and part-time workers for the holiday season, a 67% jump compared to last year.

What makes a particular Christmas unforgettable? Maybe it’s a surprise guest or a perfect gift or some sort of event that becomes family legend. But for KNKX's Nick Morrison, his most memorable Christmas happened because of slow city buses in downtown Seattle in 1975.

KNKX continues our annual tradition of reading the classic holiday poem "Twas the Night Before Christmas." From the newsroom to the music team and beyond, hear familiar on-air voices and behind-the-scenes contributors in this sonic gift to our listeners.

"Land of the Sweets" is special for its burlesque take on "The Nutcracker." It’s also a chance for non-traditional dancers to perform ballet. The production, now in its 16th year, features live jazz and comedy.
