File Under Popular

A variety of music, from Americana and folk inspired to experimental and cultivated. Some good old-fashioned rock thrown in the mix as well. Local artists showcased when possible. Tuesdays, 1-3 pm EST.

Beginning in May of 2016, I embarked on this new endeavor at the suggestion of my friend Aprille Rolle, host of Roc Soup. She invited me the year before, but health problems delayed my entrance (fashionably).

Starting on Saturday mornings, my show was gentler. I was then moved to Mondays at 11am, when I played more energetic stuff. Now, in my current spot, I begin with a bit of punch, but move in a more soothing direction through the afternoon.

The main purpose of my show is to bring to light the work of artists whose music is sadly neglected by the music industry. Lacking in that which provides big business money making product, their talent, creativity, and originality is ignored. I hope to help remedy that.
