Music of Words

Radio Show on WMPG! Tune in from 8:30pm to 10:00pm am every Monday Night. Music of Words is Folk, Jazz, Soul and Rock with Spoken Word intermingled.

There is an emphasis on meaningful/thoughtful lyrics. The show explores music and words to find where poetry and music can live and breathe together over the airwaves. You never know whose voice you might hear emerge from your speakers; Dylan Thomas, Allen Ginsberg, Raymond Carver, Sylvia Plath, Joseph Campbell have all visited so far. Let me help you start your week with great music and words married together for your enjoyment!
