Benny Benack III with Judy Carmichael on Jazz Inspired

Pittsburgh native Benny Benack III is a trumpeter, vocalist and a good keyboard artist, too! His new album “A Lot of Living To Do” is getting great reviews, and he’s clamoring to get back on the road with sounds from it, as well as with the Post Modern Jukebox.

This weekend, WZUM is broadcasting his visit with pianist, singer and host Judy Carmichael on Jazz Inspired.

From Judy, “Luckily we recorded this a couple of weeks before we all isolated. We're pictured here in what we laughing called the ‘jazz musician uniform’ when we realized we were dressed the same!”

Sunday at noon, Monday at 10am on WZUM
