Host Rob Saffer will play a slew of guitar-driven jazz and improvised music, along with some horn-focused jazz, contemporary classical, and experimental music, an intriguing mashup of noisy guitar and Middle Eastern music, some panoramic psychedelic sounds, and, if time permits, the disassembled choir drones of a saxophone quartet to finish it all off.

After the local news at noon, “Overlooked” is a show focusing on overlooked and under-heard jazz, improvisational, and other fringe music, from early roots to contemporary experiments, a mix of familiar to rare, classic to weird. Live from the shadow of Overlook Mountain in Ulster County.

Host Rob Saffer is the former Executive Director and Producer of the Creative Music Foundation.
