With the New Year in full swing, now may be a good time to reflect on the resolutions and goals that we set for ourselves for 2013. It’s still early enough to add some new ones or to simply make adjustments to ones we already have in order to stay on track. Personally, my goal is to make and keep routine medical appointments that in the past I have pushed aside. So far, I am pleased to say I am off to a good start. But just as

importantly, I am tracking the progress of resolutions (goals) that we have set for Jazz 91.9 WCLK as well. This year, we have a collective goal at WCLK to keep the great Jazz flowing

and moving forward. But we also have a higher commitment to provide more service to our community and I can proudly say that we are headed in the right direction.

Last Fall, we moved our antenna to a new tower and we were able to nearly double our coverage area allowing us to serve more communities. We are now entering our third year of simulcasting Morning Jazz with Morris Baxter in a television broadcast on CAU-TV Atlanta Comcast 23 once again allowing us to connect with more people. We have added several new philanthropic and cultural organizations to a very diverse roster of partner organizations that help us meet our civic and social priorities, allowing us to touch more lives. Our

announcers and staff are more visible in projects, panels, seminars and workshops that help to show our commitment to building a stronger community.

It is truly our goal to matter in your daily lives. So, as you review your

resolutions and goals for 2013, we ask that you make Jazz 91.9 WCLK one of your priorities this year. If you love us, but somehow got busy and let your membership lapse, make this the year that you support your Jazz station. If you’ve been meaning to put your pledge in the mail, don’t delay…do it today. It will not matter how much you give, but that you give. And we will keep doing our part.

Anton Harris

No one remembers

musicians who play it safe. Great and memorable musicians redefine music with their uncanny ability to stretch and combine many genres and mediums. Holiday, Ellington and Hendrix did this. And so did Miles--more than once. Now Anton Harris enters into the dialogue regarding great Jazz musicians who possess the dexterity to translate multiple genres into one cohesive, yet dynamic story. Whether Hip Hop or Electronica, Rock or Gospel, Harris seamlessly sews traditional and experimental patches of sound together to create a musical quilt that warms the soul. The Anton Harris Quartet was formed in 2003 with band members Che Marshall (drums), David Springer (guitar) and Brent Shields (bass). The group began recording its debut album Modern Mythology in August 2005, with production and project coordinator Khari Simmons and contributing artists.
