WUCF FM, 89.9 Jazz & More is excited to announce it is launching a new one of a kind Latin Jazz station on 89.9 HD2. Listeners will be able to tune into WUCF 89.9 HD2 Latin Jazz starting Saturday, September 28 on HD2 compatible radios or online at wucf.org/listen.
While other stations broadcast short segments of Latin Jazz, WUCF 89.9 HD2 Latin Jazz will provide full-time Latin flavored easy listening. The station will feature local personality Alex Diaz guiding listeners through a mix of songs including those from Poncho Sanchez, Tito Puente, Celia Cruz, and Cal Tjader. Diaz will also host his own Latin Jazz themed show playing a blend of classic Latin Jazz hits and the best of modern releases each week on 89.9 Jazz & More’s main station Sundays from 4 to 7 p.m.
“Central Florida's growing and thriving Hispanic audience deserves to have a community that grows and evolves right along with it,” said Dr. Phil Hoffman, WUCF Executive Director. “WUCF's Latin Jazz station is just one way we plan to ensure that everyone in our area is represented and served.”
WUCF FM began internet streaming in 2013, bringing jazz to a worldwide audience and is now among the top stature of full time Jazz stations in the United States.
WUCF FM is currently celebrating 40 years of serving Central Florida.
