Hear music from Seun Kuti, son of Nigerian artist Fela Kuti, that rivals his father's, plus insanely fun songs from the Baltimore band, Ponytail. Also on the show: English folk group The Watersons see their 1975 album For Pence and Spicy Ale reissued, new music from the influential art-folk singer Bonnie Prince Billy, a.k.a. Will Oldham, and Eef Barzelay steps away from his band Clem Snide to put out a solo album called Lose Big.
There's way too much audio in the world to catch everything that comes out of your clock radio. Public Radio Redux shines a spotlight on stories that makes you turn and look at your speakers. It's a curated list, a place to make comments, and a blog about making radio. Consider it the espresso in your daily public radio fix.
Public Radio Redux was started by two friends who bonded over the joys and pain of making radio. Jen Nathan and Erin Mishkin met at the Salt Institute of Documentary Studies and quickly bonded over a shared love of podcasts and bloody marys. Rather than boring their friends with another unrehearsed live re-enactment of their favorite radio shows, they started this blog.
