Didar Singh: Let's talk and play music, on Listening Lyrics, July 1, 2022

Fri, 07/01/2022 - 5:10pm | Pieter Pastoor

Singh.JPG

Listening Lyrics is proud to present Didar Singh Khalsa. Joining Didar is Jeff Brooks, percussion. Didar has played guitars for 52 years, but started writing, singing and recording songs only six years ago, inspired by six consecutive trips to the guitar/songwriting camp taught by the amazing Richard Thompson. He claims the muse is relentless and not even very intermittent. Let’s test that theory.

Wed, 06/29/2022 - 11:10am | Peter Schiffman

813lIOREsUL._SY355_.jpg

A new compilation explores how American roots music has always been inexplicably linked to riding its rails, with tracks from Dave Alvin, Robert Rex Waller, Jr., Dom Flemons, John Fogerty, Peter Case, and others. Also, what's Edinburgh's and Tuscon's musical connection? Hint: it's not a railroad.

Davisville, June 27, 2022: Top 2022 grad sees power in stats, prizes ‘small senses of joy and community’ she found in Davis

Mon, 06/27/2022 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

amandaportier UC Davis.jpg

My first question for Amanda Portier (pictured), this year’s top graduating senior at UC Davis, was how she managed to achieve straight A’s in her classes while chairing Picnic Day for 2022 and doing everything else she did as a student here. As you might imagine, she’s been asked this question more than once the last few weeks. Insights she gained from synchronized swimming are part of the answer. On today’s Davisville we also talk about community and regional development (her degree), using statistics to influence people (she minored in statistics) in a culture that seems to pay more attention to individual expression and personal experience, and what she’ll take from Davis as she leaves.
