IMPLOSION

IMPLOSION is hosted by Nick Saloman, front person of The Bevis Frond. Born and raised in London, England, Nick began buying records as a small child in the late 1950s, then moved on to going to gigs and playing in bands as a teenager in the late ’60s. IMPLOSION is simply an hour of Nick playing the music he loves – psychedelia, rock, folk, beat, jazz, soul, punk, and more – with a bit of chat thrown in for good measure.

Live Wednesday 4-5pm

Replays Sunday 7-8pm
