Twang Thang features outlaw country old and new, showcasing the folks who sowed the harder-edged musical seeds for what we today call Americana, as well as the newer artists who continue the tunes and outlaw ethos forward. George Jones, Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Lucinda Willimans, Steve Earle, Dwight Yoakum, Ray Wylie Hubbard, Billie Jo Shaver ... Americana music didn't just show up one day — it has deep and varied country music roots. Twang Thang explores the originators, the newcomers, and the music that happened along the way!
Rocky Outcrop from the Yolo County Breakdown takes the helm as a fill-in DJ this week while Dirk is recharging his batteries.

And a special guest DJ that listeners know well drops in for a special visit during KDRT Fundraiser time!
