"The Detour" on KZUM

"The Detour" on KZUM Thursdays, 8:30-10:30 PM CT on: KZUM.org & 89.3 FM. It's all about the journey, not the destination.

A radio program featuring a wide variety of stuff throughout the recorded history of music. It's called The Detour because I'm all over the musical map, and because the best sights and sounds are usually found away from the main highway.

Tonight on The Detour, "Jon Batiste, Sharon Jones and Lots of Women." Saw Jon last Sunday at the Astro in Omaha. A spiritually charged and very fun show. We'll start with two songs off his new release, Big Money, then go into Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings plus lots of other women artists. Hear what it's all about from 8:30-10:30 PM CT on 89.3 FM in Lincoln or planetwide at KZUM.org.

Also KZUM made their Fall Fund Drive goal! Thanks to all who donated to keep non-profit, non-commercial community radio on the air.
