Roots, Shoots and Leaves

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.

 

Live Tuesday 6-8pm
Replays Saturday 5-7pm

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.
