Legendary Davis radio host Bill Wagman passed away earlier this year. If you knew Bill well – or simply knew him through his house concerts and radio shows on KDRT and KDVS – please join us for a very special Celebration of Life at Davis Odd Fellows Hall, 415 Second St., at 2 p.m. on Sunday, June 28. There will be a finger-food potluck, and so please bring some appetizers or desserts to share. RIP, Bill.
Today In the Key of Folk spends some of the hour remembering Bill Wagman and the more that 300 musicians that he brought to his house concerts during a span of over 30 years. You'll also hear a new release or two and classic tracks by Chris Webster, Robert Earl Keen, and Driving With Fergus. Join in today and please do check KDRT.org for information on the Celebration of Life for Bill this Sunday, June 28, 2026. We'll look forward to seeing you!
Today: 2 p.m. Pacific on KDRT 95.7 FM or stream at KDRT.org.
