Band Central Radio 022325 Podcast with Jay Rowe (keyboardists), Amanda Meeson (Exec Dir Sterling Community Center) and host Rob Fried

Hi, I’m Rob Fried, and welcome to the Band Central Radio podcast for February 2025.  This was recorded live at the WPKN studio in Bridgeport on February 24th.  

Today you are going to meet smooth jazz keyboardists Jay Rowe and nonprofit leader Amanda Meeson, exec director of Sterling Community Center.

Here’s the run of show… in the first segment we talk about the music and art that has most affected who we are as people … I’m calling this your “musical pastiche”

Next we listen to Jay Rowe’s latest song, That’s What I Know.

Then I provide an update on Band Central and interview Jay about his background, what lights him up about performing, his current projects and his nonprofit that helps the Milford School System, Smooth Jazz For Scholars.

Then I interview Amanda Meeson to understand a bit about her origin story and where her passions lie.

Thank you for listening.
