Where you'll hear blues and blues influenced music and "truth sung to power on the 2 o'clock hour."
From my listeners, it would be great to hear the type of blues that you like and why blues music speaks, or should I say, "sings" to you. I would also love to factor in your ideas and blues music interests when preparing my show.
Although it's sometimes hard to play requests while I'm doing my show live, I would love for you to e-mail requests for future shows, so for song/artists requests or to just plain say "hello" e-mail me

If you are a local blues musician or a blues musician traveling through Southern Humboldt and would like to be interviewed, on-air, or perform live in studio during my show, e-mail me .
