Banchan is a collective name for Korean side dishes. They're traditionally served in small portions, but with bottomless refills, intended to be served prior to and during the main course. Banchan is a way to sample a little bit of everything, pick out your favorites, and ask for more. It's a great way to sample old favorites but also try new flavors.

Chris Hunt Returns to Listening Lyrics from NYC, Jan. 6, 2017, at 4 PM

Fri, 01/06/2017 - 10:13am | Pieter Pastoor

Christopher Hunt is well known in and around northern California. He graduated from a distinguished school (the University of the Pacific) with a master's degree in music. He has performed in numerous bands based in Davis (Gravy Nation, Tha Dirt Feelin), and slips easily in and out of genres such as pop, rock, jazz, and funk. He also has a background in producing, and feels at home behind the controls in a recording session. In all we have a musician well equipped to pursue a career in music. That's why Chris relocated to New York City. That's why we have Chris calling in from NYC to join us on the show today; let's explore his goals and motive for his move across the continent.

Today, in New York, Chris plays with several bands: Semaphore, Phonoscenes, Secret Creatures and Bottler.

For those outside the listening area, the show will stream live on www.kdrt.org

Davisville, Jan. 2, 2017: Equipping Davis Bikes with Theft Detectors

Mon, 01/02/2017 - 6:05pm | Bill Buchanan

Bike Tile.jpg

The Davis Bike Club wants you to attach a Tile detection device to your bicycle, so that the device can tell you where your bike is if it gets stolen (only the bike owner is notified). The club will even give you the Tile, if you want. The main goal is to deter thieves and reduce one of Davis' major kinds of crime. But wouldn’t thieves just remove the device? And would police really respond to a report that a stolen bike had been located? On today’s show Phil Coleman, club president and a former Davis police chief, answers these questions, and explains how and why this "Tile the City" program should work. When it catches its first thief, he says, expect to hear a lot more about it.

TO ALL DONORS- Thank you! KDRT reaches fundraiser goal!

Tue, 12/13/2016 - 9:39pm | Jeff Shaw

KDRT-LPFM in Davis, CA is proud to announce we surpassed our Boost the Signal fundraising goal! Through the generosity of donors throughout Davis and beyond, we were able to raise close to $6,000. This will allow KDRT to improve our transmission system.

"I'm really jazzed that the station will be able to upgrade to a new antenna," says Live Tracks host Jim Buchanan, "one that will deliver that high-quality sound we love throughout Davis."

KDRT plans to work on the engineering for this upgrade throughout winter, with installation in spring.

We'd love to thank all of our donors, bands that came by to help raise the money, Eunah Cho for designing our special t-shirt graphic, and every person that filled out a survey to help assess our coverage.

Speaking of the survey, volunteer Diane Crumley says "I'm thrilled by the response rate and large number who reported listening in their cars, since a new antenna will improve drive time listening throughout Davis!"
