Podcasts about deeper roots

It may be Friday the 13th but that won't stop us from fortifying ourselves with a ‘luck and fortune' theme in today's show. Hopefully, that will tip the scales. May our luck and fortune hold out until the next election. You're welcome to drop in to our slightly superstitious edition of Deeper Roots on a day that usually sends people dodging ladders and eyeing black cats with suspicion. Whether you're a believer in the 'unlucky' stigma or you consider yourself a master of your own fate, we've curated a playlist designed to explore the highs and lows of the cosmic dice roll. We'll be spinning tracks that dive deep into the world of luck and fortune with some high-stakes anthems of the casino floor to the soulful laments of those down on their luck, we're covering every corner of the wheel of fate. But...knock on wood…just in case. 

You are getting things done, high-functioning and driven yet working through exhaustion, a foggy brain and an inflamed body.

Text: John 1:1-5

We turn once again down that dark and dusty road in country music history—where temptation rides shotgun, regret sits in the back seat, and the Devil just might be waiting at the crossroads. From ballads of fear and heartfelt tales to outlaw confessions and modern Americana shadows, we'll be sharing tracks that flirt with fire, bargain with fate, and wrestle with salvation. The Devil, or if you will Satan, drops on by as our recurring country music theme this morning with selections from a host of favorites: BR5-49, The Louvin Brothers, Cowboy Copas, and Bob Wills as well as some off-brands like Ray Winfree, Kitty Lee and Powder River Jack, Jesse Floyd and a couple dozen others. They're all bemoaning the Devil's due. So pour a drink, dim the lights, and listen close… because in country music, when the Devil comes calling, he often sounds a lot like the truth. Tune in Friday mornings at 9am Pacific for yet another spoonful of your favorite Deeper Roots concoction.

This week's Deeper Roots, our first show of 2026, is most appropriately built for fresh starts and open horizons—a musical reset button for the soul. Our Friday morning journey will wind its way across gospel, folk, jazz, swing, and Americana, all tied together by the promise of new beginnings and the belief that tomorrow can be better than today. You'll hear voices of resilience and joy including The Staple Singers, poetic reinvention from Bob Dylan, the irrepressible optimism and swing of Louis Prima, the elegant, forward-moving guitar lines of Herb Ellis, and the border-crossing storytelling of Carrie Rodriguez. Settle in as we welcome brand new days with music that lifts spirits, opens doors, and reminds us that hope is always worth tuning in for. And you can do just that this Friday morning on KOWS. 

Inside Wisconsin's Deeper Roots with Blain's Farm & Fleet is headed to Racine, Wisconsin — and this one is from the heart.We're spending time with Veterans Outreach of Wisconsin to simply say thank you… and to shine a light on the way they show up for the men and women who've served our country.

On this week's episode of Inside Wisconsin's Deeper Roots with Blain's Farm & Fleet, we're headed to Baumgartner's in Monroe—a Wisconsin icon where the stories are as rich as the history… and the cheese is as bold as your uncle's opinions at Thanksgiving.And yes: Trevor tried the Limburger and would like the state to know he does NOT believe it's a “taste worth acquiring.”

 This week's Deeper Roots takes a wide turn down the backroads of American music, delivering a two-hour free form ride through the crossroads where rock, soul, blues, and Americana meet and mingle. We'll be opening the vaults for an eclectic blend honoring the roots while keeping one foot in the groove — where a deep cut from Garland Jeffreys might slide right up against raw King Curtis Memphis soul, a bouncy David Lindley number, or the tight shuffle of a Chess Records blues side. We'll be connecting the dots between decades and genres with warmth and curiosity. Whether it's Louvin-soaked harmonies, road-weary country soul, or the smoky after-hours mood of the juke joint, this week's celebration once more explores the shared DNA of American sound. Tune in for stories between the songs, unexpected transitions, and a handpicked setlist that speaks to both memory and motion — a sonic journey that proves the roots run deep, wide, and ever surprising. 

Have you ever felt like your prayers are hitting a wall, like you are in a spiritual drought and God seems silent? In this episode of The Jaime Luce Podcast, I share from 1 Kings 17 and 18 about how God uses dry seasons to deepen our faith, strengthen our roots, and prepare us for the abundance of rain that is coming. Elijah's story has always encouraged me because it reminds us that when we see nothing, it does not mean God is doing nothing. I talk about how obedience in the drought positions us for breakthrough and why the miracle often comes only after we go again. Here is what you will learn in this episode: - Why God allows spiritual droughts and how they prepare you for blessing - The importance of repairing your altar, your prayer life, before the rain comes - How the widow's obedience released a miracle in her home - How to grow deeper roots in hard times and keep your faith alive - The power of persistence when everything looks dry If you are waiting for your suddenly, your breakthrough, or your downpour, this message is for you. Do not give up. God is faithful, and your rain is coming. Where to dive in: (00:08) Overcoming Spiritual Drought Through Faith (10:51) Navigating Spiritual Drought Through Obedience (22:58) Navigating Drought Through Faith and Obedience (39:33) Deep Rooted Faith in Drought (50:27) Faith and Obedience Bring Miracles (01:00:59) Preparing for the Abundance of Rain About your host: Jaime Luce' testimony has daunting personal mountains and treacherous financial valleys. She was trapped in day-to-day stress and couldn't see a way forward. But how she started is not how she finished! And she wants you to know God has a plan for your life too, no matter how tough it seems. Today, Jaime has been married to the love of her life for almost three decades, owns two companies, and has become an author and podcaster. God's way is always the blessed way!

From the cool and sultry lounge sounds smothered in smoke to the soul venues that celebrated love and all its pitfalls, we bring you the songbirds this week. We'll be exploring vocalists, known and unknown, that delivered the goods in the first few years of the 1960s. Rock ‘n roll was finding its foothold at the same time as soul music was beginning to bust out in a big way. You'll be hearing some you know and some you don't in this week's Deeper Roots. Yeah, we've got The Chordettes, Brenda Lee and The Shirelles but we've also got some very special gems from Helen Shapiro, Judy Thomas, Kitty Ford and Betty O'Brian this week. We'll run a chronological marathon from 1960 to 1963, ignoring the genre guardrails as we make our way along. Hope you can join in on the fun.

A whole new season of Deeper Roots lands on your doorstep…just like the Sunday paper: full of human interest stories (as told in song) and local gab (also told in song). It's a free form collection of songs from the past century with performances from the usual (and sometimes unusual) suspects. Only minor themes and genre recaps today in a carefully crafted eclectic blend that runs the gamut from Jimmie Dale Gilmore to Mary Wells, The Velvetones, Billy Walker and Hot Lips Page. We'll hear some Texas tradition from Deep Elem and Milwaukee's finest from Jerry Lee. But we're also rolling out some really fine, under the radar, female soul and R&B numbers that come from off the beaten track including Doris Allen, Faye Adams and Mary Wells. And we wonder out loud ‘how deep is the ocean' with Big Maybelle. Drop on by!

Deeper Roots means just that…and this week we're spinning some blues, gospel, r&b, and swing … all music that introduced the rhythm that would become known as rock ‘n roll. We'll go as far back as the late 1930s with Joe Turner and Pete Johnson and make the picaresque journey across the alleys, juke joints, and house parties where tradition and urban electric blues became the foundation of a sound. We'll share blues from Little Walter, Jimmy Reed, John Lee Hooker and a handful of others. Also on tap, Goree Carter, Sticks McGhee, Amos Milburn and Julia Lee with some rhythm and blues and jump whose beat and attitude would influence many a rock ‘n roll musician and songwriter. Also on board: Hadda Brooks, Ray Charles, Louis Jordan and Tiny Bradshaw. Don't miss a wailin', rockin' morning here on KOWS Community Radio. 

✈️ Wisconsin aviation fans, get ready! Next up on Inside Wisconsin's Deeper Roots with Blain's Farm & Fleet is the Kelch Aviation Museum in Brodhead!

In the long view, rock ‘n roll's rise was no surprise as it's sound had been peeking through the tall grass since the 1930s with some risque (and risky) rhythm and blues, gospel celebrations and fast-paced swinging country sounds. When Sam Phillips' small operation in Memphis kicked off, who would have guessed that the fusion of all these sounds would somehow resonate with it's blend of hillbilly, blues, rhythm and gospel influences. But it did. And here we are. Tune into Deeper Roots as we go a bit deeper into the sounds of Sun Records, beyond the Elvis, Roy, Johnny, Carl and Jerry Lees. We'll turn our attention to others from the early years including The Miller Sisters, Slim Rhodes, Barbara Pittman and The Prisonaires. The music we've got is sometimes raw, sometimes wild and always headed in the same direction. Don't miss this one!

 Jukeboxes were not only cultural touchstones and vital engines for the music industry in the forties and fifties, but they also contributed to the democratization of music consumption in a way that radio could not: by allowing people to pay a nickel and choose the exact song they wanted to hear. Radio's best effort was to feed the listener versus allow the listener to make their own choice. Over a half century later, streaming has become juggernaut replacing the jukebox. Like streaming of today, the jukebox once helped with music discovery driving regional hits and elevating lesser-known artists, turning local favorites into national stars. This week's show will be a thematic one and, yes, we're picking the music. But it's a fun and mixed bag of country, early rock and pop all with the jukebox as centerpiece. Drop into Deeper Roots this morning for some classic Bill Haley, Chuck Berry, Roy Orbison and Little Richard from the edgy side of the aisle and be ready for upbeat and swinging country from Ernest Tubb, Buck Owens, and Mel Tillis. Tune in for a show that recognizes this cultural phenomenon and proves the old saw “what is old is new again”. 

Tune in this week for crimes, misdemeanors and general lawlessness as we lean on a theme that explores music that explores one hundred years of crime in different form. We'll also ask law enforcement to step in as needed with pursuits, chain gangs, and K9 units. From Elmer Bernstein to The Crickets, Mel Tillis to The Byrds, and Bo Diddley, Red River Dave, and blues from Robert Wilkins as our show reminds listeners that Crime Doesn't Pay…unless you've already got the cheese or you're on the grift with the government behind you. Join our listening audience for the best roots radio show you'll find here in the North Bay. We'll make sure this week's show covers the theme with tracks and treasures, classic influences and much more. So, whether you're tuning in from a big city street or a quiet back road, settle in, turn it up, and let the stories music take you there. It's another week of Deeper Roots on KOWS Community Radio.

This week's show will feature another journey celebrating the soundtrack of the past century. From the pounding rhythms of gospel revelations to the neon-lit evening sounds of Basin Street and Nashville, we'll be sharing the music of George Strait, Etta James, The Temptations, Little Sugar and The Hightower Brothers among over two dozen others…all in an exciting and varietal run of Americana on a Friday morning. It's where the hidden gems appear and echo each week as we dig deep across decades and genres. Dave's got iconic tracks and overlooked treasures, classic influences and modern echoes for you in a free form eclectic celebration. So, whether you're tuning in from a big city street or a quiet back road, settle in, turn it up, and let the music take you there. It's another week of Deeper Roots on KOWS Community Radio.

From a song about dirty little religions to a song about Joanie the Jehovah Witness Stripper, we'll be going all out from up and down with genre celebrations from the past century where music reflects the inspiration from church on Sunday mornings following the barroom sinners of Saturday night. This week's Deeper Roots takes a bit of a free form shuffle featuring Bo Diddley, The Ramones, Johnny Mercer, and a whole host of rhythm makers. Performances this morning will span some covers from Chris Smither, David Lindley and an answer song from Barbara Lewis. KOWS radio wants to thank all of you who came out to the Comedy fundraiser at Barrel Proof Lounge last week. It was a great success for us and also a validation of community radio here in the North Bay. KOWS is free form, free speech, no bull community radio; just the kind of thing we need in a country gone mad with lies, deceit and hate. There is always hope. Tune into your radio voice, any time of the day or night. We'll always welcome you.!

The downstream wave of sounds that flooded the charts seemed endless in the year 1960. As was exhibited in last week's Deeper Roots exhibition of ‘also rans' from that year, it was a very, very crowded field. That field was spread far and wide across genres and levels of production, songwriting and performance quality. We take on that same strata this week in the show. More teen crushes, tragedies, soulful exchanges and instrumentals that bore earworms galore. That's what we've got in store with performances from Fats to Jackie, Smokey to Etta, the Burnette Brothers and Ricky, Dean Martin, Freddie King and Linda Laurie…all giving it their all and doing their very best to crawl to the top of their respective charts. We're getting ready for a wild Sunday night here in Santa Rosa, celebrating KOWS Community Radio at the Barrel Proof Lounge in downtown Santa Rosa. Hope you can make today's Deeper Roots show and Sunday's benefit!

On this episode of Inside Wisconsin's Deeper Roots with Blain's Farm & Fleet, Trevor sits down with Corey Kaiser from Kieler, Wisconsin & Wisconsin Clothing Company!Corey's passion for Wisconsin and its people shines through his brand and his love for his hometown, and we're diving into the story behind it all—entrepreneurship, community, and what makes Wisconsin truly special.

Put another nickel in that nickelodeon ‘cause rhythm saved the world. This week on Deeper Roots we're spinning up songs about the jukebox, hit records, little bitty records, disc jockey pleas, and swinging syncopated rhythms from across the past century. That's right, we're taking a trip across ninety years featuring jazz from Jimmie Lunceford, country from the Sons of the Pioneers, gospel from the Chuck Wagon Gang, and swinging send-ups from Louis Armstrong, NRBQ, Slim Gaillard, and The Sensations. Well, you can also count on more from the usual suspects in this week's thematic celebration of the very best of Americana. Whether that's reaching out to the jukebox, the DJ or that record hawker…we've got two hours of rhythm here on KOWS Community Radio. Spend your time with music, not your hard earned dough on this day of resistance.

Country, gospel, and rhythm and blues are the major arteries that flow to the heart of Americana musical traditions, each influencing the other through shared themes of storytelling, emotion, and spirituality. Gospel's uplifting harmonies and spiritual fervor inspired both the heartfelt narratives of country music and the soulful expressions of rhythm and blues. Similarly, rhythm and blues infused gospel energy into secular music, while country music borrowed melodic and vocal elements from both genres. The "golden age" of these genres is often considered to be the mid-20th century, roughly the 1940s through the 1960s, when their innovation and cross-pollination laid the groundwork for modern popular music, including rock and roll. This week on Deeper Roots we're going to flip through some classic old records (as we love to do) and highlight the morning with performances from the likes of Otis Spann, Merle Travis, Sue Foley, Sturgill Simpson, and a few dozen others.

It was without question a natural progression. All of the attributes that country inherited from gospel, blues, and jazz resulted in what amounted to competition in the charts (and in some mid-century cultural clashes). Although The Beatles had suggested a kinship with mid-sixties tributes to Buck Owens and Chet Atkins, the only comfortable way to make the marriage work was to have it come from other directions…specifically from cultural prods of Nudie suits, coupled with folk and country nudges, and the inevitable respect for the music. Gram Parsons' influence on the late sixties rise of something they called ‘country rock' is easy to find but Dylan's John Wesley Harding album from 1968, The Byrds' Sweetheart of the Rodeo, and Leon Russell's alter-ego Hank Wilson opened the doors to a sound that swept the charts. We'll hear some originals, covers, and a whole lot more in this week's Deeper Roots. Hope y'all can join us.

This week we'll take some time away for a celebration of Americana sounds from every corner. It's a mixed bag of jazz, blues, country, rock, and everything in between in another of our free form eclectic romps here on Deeper Roots. Count on some wild swings and some quiet moments reserved for the corner booth in the show today. Aretha, Cat Power, Etta Jones and Gale Garnett are some of the female vocalists that we'll feature this morning. We'll also visit that ‘boulevard of broken dreams' with Esquivel, some lighter instrumentals from Ethel Smith and Herb Alpert; classic softer side Americana from Chris Isaak and Pokey LaFarge and the polar opposite from Creedence and BB King. What a way to blast on into 2025. Join Dave Stroud as he begins yet another year with the promise of doing the right thing...always. 

It's another episode of Deeper Roots with Blain's Farm & Fleet!Step back in time with us as we explore the rich history of Wisconsin at Old World Wisconsin!

Wednesday Night | December 4th 2024 | Isaiah 37

The 1950s were an incredibly vibrant decade for music, clearly a reflection of a post-war energy and relief. Urban jazz, the bright lights of broadway, and the crooning magic moments that lept off the silver screen were a paradox to the golden age of country music, the passionate rhythm of swing and R&B and, of course, the new audiences celebrating youth at sock hops, malt shops and sleepovers. It was an age of celebration and discovery if you were young; an age of culture shock if you weren't. This week on Deeper Roots, we'll tiptoe through the sounds of Dave Brubeck, Dion, Johnny Cash, Chuck Berry and a host of others who planted their flag in the decade of the fifties. An unusual playlist for sure. Drop on by and try to get past the fact that Black Friday will soon be over and holiday madness gets into full swing.

Has God ever answered, "No" to one of your prayer requests? Did you have a hard time accepting when God's answer was "No." I don't know about you, but I think that is a really hard one when we pray fervently, and God does not answer with the way we want him to. I remember that with my friend, we were praying for a miracle for her to be healed, but sadly she wasn't. It was really hard to accept that "No". I am excited to have Hadassah Treu on the podcast this week because she is going to share her story of a time when she had to accept when God answered, "No." I think it is a very powerful episode. Her book is called *Draw Near: How Painful Experiences Become the Birthplace of Blessings. You do not want to miss the truth Hadassah shares; there is so much goodness! Also, I am so excited for someone to win a copy of Hadassah's new book: *Draw Near.
