Live Tracks devotes its weekly show May 24 to a look at the Byrds—the rock band known for the 1960s hits “Mr. Tambourine Man†and “Turn! Turn! Turn!â€, but which also had a longer and more varied history than most people know.

Bill Scholer Blues Band and 2006 Sammie nomination
Jim Buchanan, host of KDRT's weekly show, "Live Tracks" appreciates the energy and spontaneity of live music. He considers himself lucky to have been on hand recording at the E Street Plaza in Davis on the night of June 10, 2005, when the fabulous Bill Scholer Blues Band "rocked the house"! Jim engineered that recording into a 14 track CD that features Bill Scholer, and band mates Craig Faria, Dale Lyberger, Jim Monroe, and special guest Mike "The Blues Professor" Henderson, that is available through KDRT.
Davis Media Access (DMA) announced today that its 18-month battle to keep low-power radio station KDRT on the air had come to a "mostly satisfactory" conclusion.
