Rabbit Hole Radio, Tuesdays 6pm – 7pmJoin me as we journey into the labyrinth that is rock n roll music. We will explore all genres of music related to rock, from its earliest roots in American R&B to contemporary sounds. We never quite know where the rabbit hole leads us -- the British Invasion, Folk, pop music from the 60s, 70s, and 80s, Punk, New Wave, Reggae, Ska, and a, perhaps, a protest song or two. Did someone say Metal? What? Our musical adventure promises intrigue, fun, and surprises. Join me, Ross Hering, your host of Rabbit Hole Radio on KX...
