Welcome to Blue Moon Americana, where the music runs deep, the stories run wide, and there’s always room for one more good song. Join us every Thursday morning from 9 to 11 Pacific on KOWS 92.5 FM for two hours of fresh Americana, old favorites, forgotten gems, and a few musical surprises along the way. We keep an ear to the ground for the latest releases, dust off classics that deserve another spin, and wander the backroads of Sonoma County in search of talented local musicians.
Our broadcast is delivered live from the KOWS studios in Santa Rosa’s historic Cherry Street neighborhood, right in the heart of Sonoma County, with our FM signal riding the airwaves from Occidental. Can’t make Thursday morning? You can always catch the encore on Saturdays at 3 AM Pacific.
Whether you’re down the road or halfway around the world, pull up a chair and tune in. Stream us live or grab the KOWS mobile app at kowsfm.com/listen. The coffee’s on, the music’s playing, and you’re always welcome.
