Roots, Shoots and Leaves' DJ Tree has a theory of music that involves a tree. Suffice it to say that it involves a trinity — an exploration of themes and connections among recording artists — and otherwise very few boundaries. Listen for music old and new, known and unknown. And if you listen long enough, you may experience some musical enlightenment.

Tree Kilpatrick

Rumi Shimada live on Listening Lyrics, this Friday May 17 at 4 p.m.

Sun, 05/12/2024 - 11:20am | Pieter Pastoor

Listening Lyrics is excited to announce that Rumi Shimada will be our guest this Friday, May 17, at 4.

He's a singer-songwriter from northern California, and released his self-produced album Audiofolds in August 2022. He recorded it in his bedroom studio. Shimada (who is by no means that great at any instrument) played all of the instruments on each of the album's 12 tracks, giving it a quirky, underdeveloped and juvenile sound that (fortunately) enhances and communicates the searching, mysterious, and uncertain feeling of the songs.

Rumi is also putting together what promises to be a great day of music, The Pink Bandit Music Fest on Saturday, June 29, 11 a.m.-9 p.m. at the Cooper Amphitheater in Auburn, CA.

The return of Alex Roth on Listening Lyrics, May 10, 2024

Alex Roth - KDRT.jpg

Heads up. Before you listen, please note that the last 10 minutes or so of the broadcast we had some technical diffulties.

Alex Roth is an institution in Davis and Northern California. It's been a few years since I've heard him sing live, and boy, have I missed it. In this hour Alex plays a few tunes he has recently written. During the past few years he has spent a lot of time on many of the oceans of the world. He does this as he works for International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP).

On today's show Alex talks a bit about his work and creating new music, but mostly he sings his tunes. I was blown away by his guitar work, his voice, the lyrics, and of course the music. He's a very talented musician, but even more his joy as a human being shines through in this broadcast. I was lucky to catch him for his short stay in Davis.

Yesterday on Big Day of Giving 2024 close to 130 local nonprofits participated in BDOG, including our "mothership" Davis Media Access. Regionwide, a total of 826 nonprofits came together and the $100 million mark was surpassed in total since the area's first giving event 12 years ago. We too broke our record this year surpassing our biggest goal ever! We are extremely grateful for your support and hope to thank you in-person this spring as we are out in the community with live broadcasts from Davis Pride June 1 and from the first two days at the Davis Music Fest June 14-16.
