Listening Lyrics

Listening Lyrics, Kurt.org, community radio

Welcome to an hour of Listening Lyrics, right here on KDRT 95.7 FM in Davis, California.

No musical passports required. Folk can sit next to funk, jazz can dance with rock, and a singer-songwriter might end up sharing a park bench with a reggae band. Listening Lyrics is your invitation to escape the noise of the day and enter a world of elaborate sounds, unexpected discoveries, and songs that have something to say.

This is the kind of journey only commercial-free community radio can provide.

So close your eyes. Open your ears. Relax your mind. Join me, Pieter Pastoor, as we send color to your ears and wander through the vast landscape of music and lyrics—the grand meeting place of rhythm, imagination, and the remarkable human ability to create art. Whether it's a whisper, a roar, a groove, or a melody you've never heard before, it all belongs here.

Remember: Real Music. Real Community. Real Good Music.

Replays Sunday 11am-12pm
Live Friday 4-5pm

Listening Lyrics Jul 19th, 2013 with RITA HOSKING

Rita Hosking sings about forest fires but it is her that is setting the folk music scene on blaze.This hour Rita shares some stories with us and sings some of her songs.  Her new CD "Little Boat" debut as #7 on the folk music charts and her single "Parting Glass" as #3.

LITTLE BOAT is a jewel of a CD. Stripped down to only the essentials gives her voice an extraordinary platform to shine. Elegant and sophisticated with a inspirational message.

Mixing music and clay - thats on tap this week. Listen here for show

Rebecca was initially inspired to work in clay while living in

What can I say; I LOVED THIS SHOW!

Additionally, I'll let you in on a secret, this was the first time that I listened to, not one, but two complete Rap songs -- and enjoyed them. :)

Loved the show and thoroughly enjoyed Cory. Tell him what Michael J Fox once said; "I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence, I can reach for; perfection is God's business."  He was excellent.

the October 3rd show was way too short. What a mellow and superbly classy hour that just blew by. Thanks!
