This July marked a milestone in our internet radio station's history.

In 2001, we began broadcasting on Live365. We started broadcasting after a local smooth jazz radio station in Syracuse, New York flipped to another format. Since then, we slowly built up our brand to include our official website, our blogs, a gift shop, a podcast and a social media prenence online.

Over the years, we've had to overcome significant changes to the internet radio broadcasting landcape. They included the demise of the original Live365, disruptions in service at previous stops at Radionomy and SonixCast and financial challenges to stay on the air.

But through it all, we've managed to overcome our roadblocks and stay on track.

To our long time listeners, thank you so much for your support. This broadcast stream can’t continue without the generous support of you. There are two ways you can help out. First is through our GoFundMe Fundraising campaign. We started soliciting donations in 2016 and during that time, we've raised nearly $1,000 dollars. That amount goes directly towards our operating costs. We're approaching a critical time where bills are coming due in August and September. So, keep us going by your donations. Just click on the GoFundMe banner on the left side of the page and give what you can.

The other way you can help out is by purchasing items at our gift store at Café Press. A portion of your purchase will go to the station’s operating costs, and you can show your support by wearing our swag 24/7. There are shirts, hats and collectables to tell everyone you listen to smooth jazz and more. Click on the Cafe Press banner below.
