Happy New Year everyone! We're starting off the new year with a Jazz Grab Bag episode of the Dr. Jazz Podcast. You never know what you're gonna get...enjoy!

Dr Jazz Podcast - Holiday Jazz 2025 (Dec 2025) by Nathan Holaway (Dr. Jazz)

Music transcends language barriers. In this episode, I have no idea what these artists are saying, but the music is very cool and despite my verbal ignorance, I am wanting to share these sounds and tracks with you. Enjoy!

While sitting by the fire, one of the flaming wisps graced my fingertips. That short burst of pain from being burned lit the spark of this episode: Torch Songs. I've done my civic duty in past episodes around this time of year of jazz / food-related posts, but this one goes out to those who have been burned or have carried (or may still carry) a torch for someone. Those dear souls need a post for them as well. Here it is. Enjoy responsibly.

Hello! Y'all know I love some mellow jazz from time to time. So, here's 12 tracks for you to chill out, relax and let the stress of the day just melt away. Let me know if this helped you out!

Giddy up! There's not many emotional differences between jazz and country ("cowboy") music. Both have blues influence and jazz musicians have always found it easy to dwell within the wellsprings of the stories / perspectives of country music. Here are 12 wonderful tracks for you to enjoy!

Dr. Jazz - Nawlins Pep Rally (Sept 2025) by Nathan Holaway (Dr. Jazz)

Hi everyone! It’s been a while…(I know). But I’ve been dealing with a lot of personal things and a great deal of very little down-time. That being said, I’m going to try and give this thing a “go” and keep it going. Rather than try to find a clever theme or anything, I’m returning to my mission statement of just giving you music that aims to “cure whatever it is that ails you” and hopefully that will be good enough. I sincerely appreciate those of you who are faithful listeners. Thank you!

In this Episode, we present our annual Holiday Jazz episode. There's even a bonus this year, so ENJOY!

It's taken almost 8 years of this podcast, but I've finally entered the dragon (in the year of the dragon!). This is Gillette Jazz: The Smoothest Jazz Can Get! We present 15 tracks for your listening pleasure. While not for everybody, I encourage both purists and smoothies to listen to each other's stuff (how else can we grow?).
