Roots Music and Beyond! Money! Saturday Aug 21 from 6am - 8am

Posted by Art Podell at Friday, August 20, 2021 at 12:03 PM

Roots! OK, we're at the tail end of the KPFK summer fund drive, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun too! We'll play some choice selections from my dear departed bandmate Karen Gunderson, a woman whose voice was once called "the gold standard of female voices." Plus music from new voices. All this, laid in a bed of landmark artists and all coming at you from KPFK 90.7 FM Los Angeles (listen at https://www.kpfk.org/). Worth the listening, worth supporting...just sayin'...y'know....

KPFK is a progressive media outlet challenging corporate media perspectives and providing a voice to voiceless communities. Help keep KPFK a strong and independent source of music, arts, news and information.
