BLUEGRASS, ETC. WITH FRANK HOPPE
Sunday mornings from 6 to 10am (PT).
From the Banks of the Ohio to the Blue Moon of Kentucky...where Bluegrass was born, Bluegrass, Etc. continues the grand tradition. Long–time host Frank Hoppe features traditional bluegrass, old–time and early country music to move your heart and your feet. Those legendary artists, from early stars of country music like Hoyt Ming & His Pepsteppers and the Carter Family to contemporary performers like Ralph Stanley, Alison Krauss, and Ricky Skaggs are broadcast directly to you commercial–free.
You can expect to hear something new to your ears plus unexplored facets of this great American music each and every week. Whether it’s a sixty–year–old classic or a newfound treasure, Bluegrass Etc. has a few surprises for even the most die–hard music lover.
Frank doesn't just play music for the airwaves, he lives it. An accomplished musician, Frank plays the guitar, violin, cello and mandolin. He's also an avid dancer, and for the last 18 years has organized the fiddling and dancing segments of the California Traditional Music Society's Summer Solstice Festival. He has served on that society’s board and is an active member in the International Bluegrass Music Association.
