Our Story

Taking our title from the Ida Cox song, "Wild Women don't get the Blues", our show, “Wild Women and Friends”, will feature women artists in Jazz and Blues, with a liberal interpretation of the word “friends” to include other genres and even, occasionally, a man. Please join us every Thursday at 11:00 a.m. for an hour of Classic Blues women, Jazz women, piano, mellow standards and lots more. Right here at 91.1 FM, WTJU-Charlottesville, and on the web at wtju.net.
