Tune in Friday morning for a finger pickin’ helping of Americana and beyond as our show revisits some guitar masters from blues, country blues, folk and tradition. We’ll take a spin across the landscape of steel and gut string tradition with a collection that features tracks from Stefan Grossman, Mississippi John Hurt, Leo Kottke, Merle Travis and over a dozen others. As February wraps up, we’ll be completing our February journey out of winter’s doldrums and into the sweet breezes of Spring. Let this show be a warmup for your good life and times. So put your feet up and drop in. We’d love to have you.

A free form Friday morning finds us drifting along with the tumbling tumbleweeds as we follow the blue shadows on the trail with songs of loose talk, love letters and dreams. We’ll dig deep into those early, mid- and late century digital archives for some sweet and sensitive tracks from the likes of Elvis, Wanda, Iggy (!), The Impressions, Rhiannon Giddens, and a couple dozen more. It’s quite the mixed bag on a Saturday morning as the winter of 2022-23 begins to roll away like the tumbleweeds as the winds of spring pushes the time away. Tune into community radio this week as we fill the air with the music that’s easy on the ears (and the soul). Every Friday and Saturday morning on KOWS 92.5 FM, Occidental and streaming to planet Earth on KOWSFM.COM.

The decade of the sixties saw top 40 radio get it’s cue from the sounds of the Motor City. The house that Berry Gordy built was overflowing with musical talent. And he knew how to use them. The Funk Brothers and other studio musicians coupled with the songwriting of Barrett Strong, Smokey Robinson, and the team of Holland-Dozier-Holland…were at the core of what was produced in Detroit’s Motown. There were also the performers that blossomed, some becoming household names: Mary Wells, Marvin Gaye, The Temptations, Martha and the Vandellas, and countless others. There is no question that this was the Motown Decade. This week on Deeper Roots we’ll be walking through the sixties Motown sound with just some of those performers…and more. Friday mornings at 9 Pacific on KOWS Community Radio.

Harlan Howard is said to have coined the term “three chords and the truth”. He’s also the guy that gave Willie Nelson his first job as a songwriter after the two met up at Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge in Nashville in 1960. Harlan was a well-established songwriter in Nashville by then and would go on to become one of the most prolific songwriters of his generation, having penned over 4,000 songs. To lead off next month’s release of Willie Nelson’s 73rd solo album, a tribute to Howard called “I Don’t Know A Thing About Love”, Deeper Roots will share a small sampling of Harlan Howard’s music. Songs that played a big part in defining the Golden Age of Country Music featuring the likes of Waylon Jennings, Skeeter Davis, Jan Howard, Buck Owens, and Patsy Cline. We’ll also hear a couple of Harlan’s own performances as well. Friday morning country on Sonoma County Community Radio.

We’re going silent today. Vocals-wise, anyway. Tune in Friday morning for the best rock instrumentals from the late fifties through the sixties as we journey through a slick set of the very best from Santo and Johnny to Mason Williams with our core focus being on the wild chart sounds of Duane Eddy, Sandy Nelson, The Tornados, Link Wray and more teen beat, pop and rock favorites from a particularly fertile time for rock n’ roll. Whether they were riffing on classic sounds of the past or blasting off into the outer stratosphere with sounds of space and surf, the instrumentals peppered the charts with themes for the time, owing more to roots than we appreciate. Join the fun on KOWS’ Friday mornings at 9 Pacific on Deeper Roots.

The landscape this morning is smothered in ominous clouds as the music we have for you features the gospel beat with a blend of suggestive celebratory, suspicious, and devil-may-care songs. We’ve got the fire and brimstone bible-thumping sounds of Brother Claude Ely, some classic gospel warnings from The Golden Gate Quartet, a pastiche of British Clerkenwell nuggets from The Real Tuesday Weld, The Weavers, Lonnie Johnson, and a whole lot more. An eclectic blend of songs of Satan, dark nights, and sinner’s bemoaning their dirty little religion on another Friday morning collection of sounds on Deeper Roots. Tune in. The ground is saturated with blues, gospel, country, and even some hillbillies from hell…just for you.

It may be Friday the 13th, but we won’t be bothered with the superstitious. Instead, we’ll go with traditional and popular country nuggets as our topics with some couplings of contemporary and vintage. We’ve gathered a collection of modern country covers from the likes of Rosanne Cash, Solitaire Miles, Charley Crockett, Chuck Mead and others and we’ll be coupling them up with originals and favorites from the distant past. Merle Travis, Red Foley, Hank Williams, and The Louvin Brothers take the stage from a dream-filled past. We’re celebrating country classics from fifties, sixties and seventies and having fun doing it while kicking back. You don’t need to be wearing pretentious boots and hats to appreciate the easy sway of classic country … you just need to close your eyes and appreciate the performances … well, unless you’re driving.

Elvis Presley’s performances, in particular those from his first decade, were based in some very deep roots. Those roots tapped into almost anything that could be heard in the south on that cultural touchstone of radio. Blues, big band, jazz, hillbilly, pop, gospel and country all played an enormous role in molding the iconic performer he was to become. In our Deeper Roots show this week we’ll be exploring the ‘influencers’ of the day; songs that played on the radio, songs that Elvis personally revealed as his favorites, songs that he enjoyed with his family as a young boy. We’ve got Mahalia and Sister Rosetta tracks, Little Junior Parker and Jimmy Reed, Red Foley and Roy Acuff, and a host of others to share this week so we’re hoping that we can remember how radio’s lifeline to culture that spoke to Elvis in a very, very big way.

The river of time flows on as our sturdy yet terminal transport is like any raft, a fragile one as our bindings become untethered. Let’s tip our hats and remember those who, over the past century, have contributed to American culture. This morning’s show is about the performers, the songwriters, the session musicians, and those behind the scenes who made a lasting contribution. We thank them as 2022 comes to a close. Tune in for a comprehensive and reflective show, our final Deeper Roots show of 2022, as we look ahead to the new year that is filled with so much promise.

This week’s show looks back at the year 2022 with a focus on the umbrella genre known as Americana. We’ll be digging deep into the releases that mattered last year, sharing some of the fresh new releases that made an impression. There are the singer/songwriters, the old hands with fresh perspectives, as well as those who have taken tradition and dressed it up fresh for the party. We’ll hear tracks from some of the very best albums of the year, including a few off the beaten one. Some great sounds coming your way from Aoife O’Donovan, The Black Keys, Tami Neilson, and Hurray for the Riff Raff. Pour yourself a cup of your favorite fresh brew, put on the headphones, and find yourself some new favorites from under that big tent they call ‘Americana’ on KOWS Community Radio.
