Awakenings

Awakenings is a journey into the music and spiritual legacy of John and Alice Coltrane — hosted by their daughter, Michelle Coltrane.

Tune in every Saturday from 4:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. to start your day with celestial sounds, spiritual jazz, and the timeless improvisations of John Coltrane — a master who sought liberation through sound.

You’ll also hear Alice’s transcendent compositions and explore the artists, collaborators, and cosmic inspirations connected to the Coltrane universe.

Stay tuned for live music updates in our city, and let this soundtrack carry you into the morning — whether you’re sipping tea, stretching, or simply taking a moment to breathe.
