Checking out the latest Coldplay, singer/songwriter Rj Cowdery, and a thank you to our revered veterans with a beautiful tribute and song by Timothy P. Irvin.   

Everybody has been talking about the new Coldplay, and after listening, I now know why.  Nice!

I am so impressed  by Rj Cowdery – Apparently, after working for years in health care and writing on the side, she decided to turn the tables and make music her career rather than her hobby.  This, at an age when most people are looking towards retirement.  Go girl!  Her new album, In This Light is quintessentially folkie, with sass  and attitude.  Love it.

Timothy P. Irvin, known for years along the Front Range of Colorado from his work with the Rural Route 3 and Flash Cadillac, and the Rocky Mountain Stocking Stuffers, amongst other projects, wrote this stunning song.

Thank you to all Veterans-- thank you.

Though the majority of my radio experience has been in the commercial sector (from Colorado to Utah to Alaska), my radio was always tuned to the public station... I am an NPR junkie. I was blessed to work with some truly amazing and creative people in radio since my first professional job in the industry during my freshman year in college. That blessing has continued by being part of the family of one of the most incredible radio stations (and staff) in the country - KUNC.
