How "12 O'Clock Jump" became "12th Street Jump"

The Theatre League's KCUR Jazz program recently changed its name from "12 O'Clock Jump" to "12th Street Jump" after leaving the Mutual Musicians Foundation.

Tony Botello has reported on this at KC Confidential and at Tony's Kansas City and here's news about the change from an earlier KC Confidential post by Hearne Christopher.

Here's the Theatre League's press release [pdf] about the change and the announcement [also pdf] of the new program from the "12th Street Jump" website.

You can listen to the "12th Street Jump" program at KCUR.
