After the local news at noon, a musically diverse, wide range of newly released music spanning genres and continents. An array of recordings that offer the ear unusual musical juxtapositions and pairings: a string quartet and punk rock; Zimbabwean percussion and refracted un-jazz sax jams; pipa blues and detuned guitar improv; and much odder and overlooked music released in 2021. Featuring music by Attacca Quartet; black midi; Typical Sisters; William Parker; Darkside; Min Xiao-Fen; Chris Stamey and Kirk Ross; Michael Harrison; Trialogos; Leila Abdul-Rauf; yes/and; Blurry the Explorer; Gerycz / Powers / Rolin; Rose City Band; Helvetia; Jeffrey Alexander; This is The Kit; My Tree; Les Filles de Illighadad; Sam Gendel and Josiah Steinbrick; Ephat Mujuru; Dustin O’Halloran; and, John Luther Adams.

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.
