IMPLOSION

IMPLOSION blue graphic

IMPLOSION is hosted by Nick Saloman, front person of The Bevis Frond. Born and raised in London, England, Nick began buying records as a small child in the late 1950s, then moved on to going to gigs and playing in bands as a teenager in the late ’60s. IMPLOSION is simply an hour of Nick playing the music he loves – psychedelia, rock, folk, beat, jazz, soul, punk, and more – with a bit of chat thrown in for good measure.

Alexandra Lee-Job of Davis Phoenix Coalition on Hello Davis!, April 15, 2026

Thu, 04/16/2026 - 9:45am | Pieter Pastoor

IMG_5480.jpeg

Today on Hello Davis!, host Anoosh Jonjonian speaks with Alexandra Lee-Job, a founding member of Davis Phoenix Coalition.

The conversation explores the coalition’s mission to unite the Davis community by confronting intolerance, preventing hate, and promoting a civic culture that values diversity and inclusion in all forms. Alexandra also discusses the harmful idea of “permanent immigrants” — when people are still seen as outsiders even after generations in America.

Most of all, this is a story about the power of one woman’s voice and how determined action can help shape and strengthen an entire community.

Listening Lyrics – April 10, 2026: Alex Jenkins talks about his new nationally acclaimed album Black Bird

Fri, 04/10/2026 - 4:51pm | Pieter Pastoor

A Jenkins 2.jpg

This week on Listening Lyrics, it's the Alex Jenkins Trio! These Sacramento musicians are among the most talented in the region, truly creative, and promise music full of beautiful surprises. The trio's latest record, Black Bird, received a four-star review in All About Jazz and is being played on radio stations across the country. Due to his in-depth study of the music of different cultures, Alex’s playing transcends musical traditions and boundaries. His expression of rhythm is heavily influenced by his study of Tabla (a North Indian classical percussion instrument). As a result, he has become known for his creative approach to music and his unique ability to fuse rhythmic ideas from various disciplines into one cohesive sound. Hear Listening Lyrics Fridays on KDRT 95.7fm + KDRT.org! Listen anytime via the web and the podcasts.
