“I cannot wait to meet the current listeners and bring some new ones along on the journey too.”

Nick Pitts, Jazz FM’s Content Director says: “We’ve been planning this for quite a while but the COVID-19 crisis and the ensuing lockdown took hold, so I’m really pleased that we can now bring YolanDa to Jazz FM.

“Her bright, fresh approach to the music as a working jazz musician in so many disciplines will really add a layer to our presentation and will expose Jazz FM to a whole new audience.

“She is also one of the smiliest people and her warmth immediately comes across on the airwaves”.
