Live Jam

Live Jam Lights Up the Airwaves Tonight with Friday Night Lights, a Benefit Concert for Altadena, and a Full Week of All-Live Radio Shows

Live Jam isn’t just another music station.
It is the only radio format in the world built entirely around one rule: every song played is a live performance.

No studio edits.
No alternate radio mixes.
No polished recreations.

Live Jam exists to preserve what actually happens on stage — the spontaneous solos, the crowd reactions, the extended jams, and the once-only moments artists create when the red light comes on and the audience is right in front of them.

That philosophy comes into full focus tonight with a powerful edition of Friday Night Lights.


Friday Night Lights – Tonight at 9 PM EST

Tonight’s Friday Night Lights Radio Show delivers a full, uninterrupted live concert experience with real purpose behind it.

Live Jam presents A Concert for Altadena, featuring Dawes and special guests, recorded live in Pasadena, California on January 7, 2026.

This is not a highlight reel.
This is the complete live performance, played start to finish, exactly as it unfolded in the room.

The concert brings together musicians and fans for a cause that extends far beyond the stage — using music to support and spotlight the Altadena community. It captures everything Live Jam stands for: connection, authenticity, and the shared power of live performance.

Beginning at 9 PM EST, Friday Night Lights presents this exclusive live release in its entirety.

This is what Live Jam does best — turning radio into a front-row seat.


Live From The Vault – Saturday Night at 9 PM EST

A Landmark Live Album Takes Its Place in History

Live Jam’s Live From The Vault continues its deep exploration of one of the most respected industry lists ever assembled — the Top 50 Live Albums of All Time, curated by the writers at Variety.

This week, the spotlight lands on the record ranked No. 4 on that list:

Fleetwood Mac – The Dance

The album documents one of the most important reunion tours in modern rock history and stands as a defining example of how live albums can reshape a band’s legacy. Live From The Vault takes listeners inside the performances, the context, and the lasting impact of this historic release — all through the music itself, played exactly as it happened on stage.


Live Country Radio – Monday Nights at 9 PM EST

Five Hours of Country Music the Way It Was Meant to Be Heard

At Live Jam, country music is never confined to studio walls.

It was born on back porches, festival grounds, dance halls, and outdoor stages. It lives in stories told between songs, crowd sing-alongs, and steel guitars ringing through open air.

Live Country Radio delivers five straight hours of stage-born country — spanning generations, styles, and regions — but always in its purest form: live on stage.

From classic road-tested anthems to modern touring powerhouses, this weekly marathon is built for late-night drives, backyard bonfires, and listeners who understand that country hits harder when it’s shared with a crowd.


Don Plays Live Zappa – Tuesday Nights at 10 PM EST

Five Hours Inside the Zappa Vault

Don Plays Live Zappa dives head-first into one of the most adventurous live catalogs in music history.

Five straight hours of live performances from Frank Zappa showcase the fearless improvisation, complex arrangements, and unpredictable on-stage chemistry that defined Zappa’s touring bands across decades.

This show isn’t about greatest hits.
It’s about capturing the evolving versions of songs, the unexpected segues, and the musical risk-taking that only happened in front of a live audience.


Get the Led Out Live – Wednesday Nights at 10 PM EST

Three Hours of Legendary Zeppelin Concert Performances

Every Wednesday night, Live Jam opens the vaults on one of the most electrifying live bands of all time.

Get the Led Out Live delivers three uninterrupted hours of concert recordings from Led Zeppelin — drawn from the band’s most celebrated tours and historic performances.

Live Jam exists to preserve the spirit of live performance — not nostalgia, but living energy.
When Zeppelin stretched “Dazed and Confused” into a sonic journey or transformed “Whole Lotta Love” into a rolling blues-rock medley, they weren’t simply playing songs. They were creating moments that could never be repeated.

That is exactly what this show captures.
