Summary
KRTU 91.7 FM’s Bria Woods '16 is bringing live jazz to Pearl restaurants, expanding the station’s mission beyond the airwaves and into the San Antonio community. The partnership highlights how Trinity University’s public radio station connects local musicians, businesses, and audiences while celebrating the city’s vibrant jazz culture.

CultureMap San Antonio has written about KRTU-FM, the well-known jazz station at Trinity University, which has teamed up with Southerleigh Hospitality Group for a new monthly jazz-dining series. Bria Woods '16, KRTU FM’s content director, crafted a playlist that combines classic jazz standards with contemporary bop, designed specifically to complement the coastal-Southern and French brasserie menus at Southerleigh Fine Food & Brewery and Brasserie Mon Chou Chou.

“We’re thrilled to partner with KRTU to bring these jazz experiences to life,” said Jerome Serot, co-founder of Southerleigh Hospitality Group. “Music has the power to transform a meal into a memory, and this collaboration allows us to highlight the great work done at KRTU and to further become a supportive member of our community.”

On January 23, 2026, KRTU will celebrate its 50th anniversary with a free concert featuring Jazzmeia Horn, at the Carver Community Center. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the show begins at 7 p.m. The public is invited.
