If you're new to her work, then keep your eyes out for more because Alsion has found her niche and she shows no signs of stopping.

Gaelynn Lea's music is haunting. It's no wonder she won NPR Music's 2016 Tiny Desk Contest. She recently visited Nazareth College and we were there to capture her performance. Aired 1/12/18.

Aweful Kanawful

Air Date: 
Nov 03, 2017

Austin Lake is a 24 year-old musician from Rochester, New York. His alter-ego is Aweful Kanawful, a musical virtuoso backed by his Rubber Husband’s Band. What audiences see as a ten-piece ensemble begins in the solitude of Austin’s basement, where he records each instrument on their own, and later combines them to create the sound of a full band. Take a look inside the creative genius of this local talent.

Andy Nahas

Air Date: 
Aug 18, 2017

Music has a way of reaching the seemingly unreachable. There's plenty of evidence that proves how powerful music can be for people suffering from Alzheimers and dementia. And it can brighten the day of just about anyone who is feeling down. Local singer, Andy Nahas, specializes in performing for this audience, let's take a look. 

Cammy Enaharo

When it comes to the soulful voices of Rochester musicians, it's impossible to ignore Cammy Enaharo. She pairs her soothing vocals with her trusty ukulele to provide simple but beautiful melodies. We caught her at the recent First Niagara Rochester Fringe Festival. Take a look. Aired 10/14/16.

Dr. Jefferson Svengsouk

Air Date: 
Sep 16, 2016

Have you ever experienced a deep sense of calm after listening to soothing music? I'm sure you can relate when I say that listening to music can bring peace in stressful or uncertain times. Well, local doctor, Jefferson Svengsouk is putting this into practice at Strong Memorial Hospital's Palliative Care Unit. He's combining his two passions, caring for people in need and playing the Native American flute. We recently visited him as he played at the bedside of someone in need. Aired 9/16/16.

Earlier this year we were visited by a true master of the banjo.

The conversation touched on the back story of the instrument and Bela Fleck's place in that history. Take a look. Aired on 5/13/16
