WATCH THE SHOW ON YOUTUBE IN HD: http://bit.ly/1vjbqRZ Dirk Hamilton is such a prototypical singer-songwriter-guitar player, someone ought to make a movie about him — and in fact Dirk does appear front and center in the upcoming documentary Folk...
An hour of cool jazz: West Coast cool and Latin jazz guitar.
I heard this young man two years ago and finally he is available to appear on LISTENING LYRICS. KDRT is thrilled that Ryan will spend an hour in the studio. Ryan McBride is a Davis-native guitarist, singer, and songwriter. His mellow acoustic style takes influence from greats such as Tom Petty and Bob Dylan, alongside many other contemporary folk writers such as Jack Johnson and The Tallest Man On Earth. His musical repertoire includes a collection of covers and originals. He is currently in Davis to finish up classes but will send in his credits to receive his degree Bachelors in Biology this fall from Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Oregon.
In preparation of their performance at The Grad on Sunday evening, we'll celebrate Sylvan Esso.
Wikipedia: Sylvan Esso is the eponymous debut studio album by American electropop group Sylvan Esso, released May 12, 2014 via Partisan Records.

LIVE IN THE LOAM is our pop-up show featuring touring and local artists who are playing in and around Davis.

Not to worry if you're unable to listen--all shows are archived here for your listening enjoyment
Joel Daniel of The Hoots, is our guest this week. Children music can be tricky to say the least but The Hoots have found the right formula. The Hoots play children's oriented music rooted in folk, Americana, and rock. The songs, with their catchy melodies and fun themes, are familiar, yet unique. It is music that kids love and their parents more than tolerate!
Some of the awards The Hoots have been honored to receive:
- Winner of a 2013 Parent's Choice Award;
- Winner of a 2013 Family Choice Award;
- Winner of a 2013 Parent Tested Parent Approved Award;
- Winner of a 2013 Creative Child Award;
- Winner of a 2013 Tillywig Toy Company Award;
Time to get into BED - get ready for an interview with some very creative, talented and driven musicians. In late 2013, Alex and Sierra Haager quit their jobs and escaped their lives in San Francisco and headed north to start Breakup Records. Although they spend nearly every waking hour working with some of their favorite bands, they still found time to create a new project for themselves.
Sacto Americana outfit Mike and the Californios will visit the KDRT studios to play some tunes and chat about other projects Mike Blanchard is a long time member of the Sac Music scene and has played with a wealth of bands, including the Tattooed Love Dogs, who have been active for 20+ years. Dug Deep will host.
