FLIMA Beat Radio Hour – Airs Saturdays at 6:00PM

The FLIMA Beat Radio Hour is my weekly exploration of the music, musicians, and creative community of the Finger Lakes and Central New York. Broadcasting on WGCC-LP 104.1 FM, each show weaves together independent music, regional artists, original recordings, and sounds from around the world.

Built around a theme, a local event, or an artist worth discovering, the show celebrates creative expression, cultural exchange, and the people making music happen in our region.

Produced through the Finger Lakes Independent Music Alliance (FLIMA), it’s part radio program, part community showcase, and always an invitation to listen a little closer.

Tune in weekly on WGCC-LP 104.1 FM, and explore the show archives to discover the music and people making things happen across our region.

Geneva Jazz Festival – Scott Lafaro Celebration

Extraordinary jazz in exquisite spaces. The Geneva Jazz Festival celebrates the art of jazz while honoring the legacy of Geneva native Scott LaFaro, the groundbreaking bassist whose brief but influential career helped redefine modern jazz. As co-founder and artistic director, I’ve helped bring exceptional musicians and adventurous performances to unique venues throughout our community, creating opportunities for discovery, connection, and world-class music close to home.

FLIMA Alliance

Founded in Geneva, NY in 2010, the Finger Lakes Independent Music & Arts (FLIMA) grew from a shared vision of supporting independent musicians and building community through music. Through concerts, festivals, workshops, educational programs, and collaborative projects, FLIMA creates opportunities for artists to connect, grow, and share their work while bringing people together through the arts. It’s an ongoing commitment to a vibrant, accessible, and sustainable independent music community throughout the Finger Lakes and beyond.
