Davisville, March 19, 2018: Stories from all over wonderful, weird California

Mon, 03/19/2018 - 6:05pm | Bill Buchanan

Sam McManis and his book.png

For five years, and while living in Davis, Sam McManis wrote a column about traveling through California for the Sacramento Bee. He went beyond the usual subjects to write about places like Nitt Witt Ridge ( a counterpoint to Hearst Castle), Rancho Obi-Wan, and the Museum of History in Granite, and has collected and updated the best stories in his new book, “Crossing California: A Cultural Topography of a Land of Wonder & Weirdness.” He’s back in the area from his current home in Yakima, Wash., for a book tour, and talks about his stories—and what he’d recommend to travelers who visit Davis—today on Davisville.

Low Strung Cello Fest

Doug Kelly stood in for Pieter today to host Low Strung. Somehow all of these wonderful Yale students fit in our TV studio for a video recording and a live radio broadcast.

Listen above to hear the chaos- special thanks to Live Tracks host Jim Buchanan, Bryce Parker for the video, and our own Preacher for helping with camera. It takes a village sometimes!

Special thanks to KDRT operations memeber Diane Crumley for the photo and ushering the group through our space. And, yes, those are all Cello cases in our video editing area....

The Five Thirty visits Listening Lyrics, recorded on Mar 9th, 2018

Fri, 03/09/2018 - 5:05pm | Pieter Pastoor

IMG_0490.jpg

After rocking their homecoming dance in 2015, The Five Thirty - the name taken from the band's childhood area code - began concocting their diverse style, reminiscent of classic rock, pop and funk in a Heat Stroke inducing loft in Davis, California. The band owes their genre bending capability to a myriad of artists not limited to Red Hot Chili Peppers, Zeppelin, and Paramore. The powerful trio fronted by Ben Simmons (Vocals/Guitar) and joined by brother Brian Simmons (Drums) and Alex Timmons (Bass) all grew up in similar music circles, performing shows from a young age with their own separate groups at RockBand University. Ben began producing music professionally at fourteen and met Alex during a recording session. He has a strong musical gut coupled by a facility of the fretboard, and brings his experience with being a singer-songwriter to the band platform.

Davisville, March 5, 2018: Brody Fernandez is no longer a council candidate, but his #1 topic is still housing

Mon, 03/05/2018 - 6:05pm | Bill Buchanan

Brody Fernandez Feb 2018.jpg

Brody Fernandez, who will graduate from UC Davis this year, was a candidate in the June Davis City Council election, then concluded he wouldn't be able to commit the time or resources the campaign would have required. His #1 issue was the housing problem in Davis, a common frustration, especially for students. He based some of his research on what he learned while driving people around as a driver for Lyft and Uber. Today we talk about what he thinks Davis should do, why he wanted to run, and what drew him to Davis in the first place.
