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.

Spring! The Audio Ecotone for March 21, 2025

Fri, 03/21/2025 - 12:44pm | Eddy Owt

silver_bush_lupine.jpeg

At 2:01 a.m. Pacific Time on March 20, the sun crossed the plane of the equator, marking the vernal equinox and the start of spring! Across the centuries and cultures, the vernal equinox and coming of spring has not only had practical meaning (time to start sowing seeds, coming of hay fever season, etc.), but has also naturally been imbued with including meaning and symbolism -- Rebirth, Rejuvenation, Renewal, Love, Youth and the Passing of Darkness. Couldn't we all use a little bit of that right now?

On today's Audio Ecotone, we will celebrate those themes and the coming of spring with music old and new from Elvis Presley, The Flaming Lips, Blossom Dearie, Cibo Matto, Caroline Polarchek and a few other surprises. Listen live at 3 p.m. Pacific on KDRT 95.7 FM in Davis or online at kdrt.org. The show will replay Saturday 3/22 at 6 p.m. and Tuesday 3/25 at 7 a.m.
