WGMC

WGMC is a listener-supported station in Rochester, New York, USA, broadcasting on 90.1 MHz FM and streaming on the Internet at www.jazz901.org. On air, the station is identified as "Jazz 90.1" in reference to its FM frequency. WGMC specializes in all styles of jazz, but is also an important outlet for music and voices that do not make it onto commercial radio. WGMC's longest-running show is Polka Bandstand. The Lithuanian-language Dainos Aidas; a Turkish-language show; The Latin Essence, a four-hour program of Latin music broadcast in Spanish; and The German Radio Program also have their home on the station. The station also hosts a blues show on Sunday evenings, a soul jazz program on Friday nights, a program of avant-garde jazz on Tuesday nights, and other specialty shows featuring subgenres of jazz. On June 6, 2009, WGMC added its first call-in talk show, Sound Bytes, which had previously been broadcast on WHAM and WXXI. The WGMC studio is located in the Greece Olympia High School media center.
