What a show for the day after Thanksgiving! This week we roll out a two-hour celebration of bakery-inspired tunes—an irresistible mix of cakes, pies, donuts, cookies, and every sugary delight ever to find its way into a lyric. We'll be mixing up a blend from a century's worth of music, from early jazz confections and country-fried treats to soulful blues pastries, golden-era pop indulgences, and rock-and-roll slices served hot from the oven. It's all about how bakery imagery has sweetened American music's storytelling. Jazz bands swing like a spoon in batter; country artists offer homestyle wisdom baked into every verse; blues singers lean into the bittersweet with slow-cooked grooves; and rock outfits bring the heat with songs that crust, crackle, and pop. Whether it's a dusty 78 from the 1920s or a modern track with sprinkles of retro charm, the playlist draws straight from the musical pantry of the past hundred years. This week's highlights include performances from Dan Hicks, NRBQ, Curtis Salgado, Ella Fitzgerald, Fats Waller and a whole lot more. Tune into community radio for West Sonoma County. KOWS-LP 92.5 FM Occidental, streaming to planet Earth at kowsfm.com/listen.

In this playful bonus of The Spark, Katy Cowan welcomes back Zoë Thompson, founder of Sweet Thang and proud zine entrepreneur, for a quick-fire round of joy-filled questions. After sharing her creative journey in Monday's episode, Zoë returns to talk about creative jealousy and how she reframes it with her "love it for you, want it for me" list. She makes a strong case for anti-hustle creativity, too. Sometimes, doing nothing is where good ideas arrive. Zoë shares the small rituals that keep her grounded, including solo dance parties to a playlist that gets her out of her head and back into her body. She goes nostalgic with scents that pull her straight back to her childhood years in Brunei. Think bug spray, sunscreen, and memories of the rainforest. There are fairy folktales, a dream dinner with Ella Fitzgerald, and a defence of Helvetica that will make every designer nod. You also get TikTok envy handled with grace, a love letter to Pinterest, a new font purchase, and a gentle debate on spice levels. It is warm, funny, and honest. Listen if you need a creative lift, a reminder that balance beats hustle, and a nudge to make space for play.

251110PC Götterdämmerung in den USA?Mensch Mahler am 10.11.2025Das Brooklyn Paramount Theater hat schon viele große Shows gesehen. Stars wie Ella Fitzgerald, Miles Davis, Fats Domino und Ray Charles standen hier bereits auf der Bühne – doch der letzte Dienstagabend wird in die Geschichte eingehen.Zohran Mamdani ließ sich im Paramount für einen Wahlsieg feiern, den es so bisher noch nie gegeben hat. Innerhalb nur eines Jahres hat es der Politiker vom Hinterbänkler aus Albany zum Bürgermeister von New York City geschafft.Mit 34 Jahren ist Mamdani nicht nur der jüngste Bürgermeister in der Geschichte der Stadt, sondern auch der erste, der nicht in den USA geboren wurde – der erste Muslim, ein selbst ernannter Sozialist. Ein bemerkenswertes Profil für den wichtigsten Finanzplatz der Welt.In Virginia gewann die frühere Kongressabgeordnete und CIA-Beamtin Abigail Spanberger gegen Winsome Earle-Sears und holte den Bundesstaat nach vier Jahren republikanischer Führung für die Demokraten zurück.In New Jersey siegte Mikie Sherrill, ebenfalls ehemalige Kongressabgeordnete und Kampfpilotin der US Navy, gegen den Republikaner Jack Ciattarelli.Drei Wahlen, drei Siege, die nur ein Jahr nach Trumps Wahlsieg am 5. November 2024 auf eine mögliche Trump-Dämmerung hindeuten.Klar ist jedoch: Eine Anti-Trump-Kampagne allein wird nicht reichen, wenn aus den drei überraschenden Siegen der Demokraten ein nachhaltiger Erfolg werden soll. Wie ihre Strategie fürs gesamte Land aussehen kann, wird die Partei jetzt beweisen müssen. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

My Music with Graham Coath — Featuring Mary McAvoyIn this soulful and wide-ranging episode of My Music, host Graham Coath heads across the Atlantic to chat with Mary McAvoy, a singer-songwriter from Providence, Rhode Island, whose voice blends classic soul, blues, and pop into something timelessly human.Together they explore how community, creativity, and the sea itself inspire her work — from her early love of Whitney Houston and Celine Dion to her blues-infused originals that channel both comfort and catharsis. Mary talks openly about growing up in a musical household, the reality of life after appearing on The Voice USA, and what success really means when fame isn't the goal.There's humour, heart, and even a guest appearance from Mary's dachshund-beagle mix (who clearly approves of good music). The conversation dives into everything from Ella Fitzgerald to quantum physics, from the soul of live performance to why women in music are rewriting the rules of age and success.

Through the eyes of a young girl, we explore the legendary Club Desire - a groundbreaking venue started by Dana's grandfather in the 1940s.

Both stories share a powerful message: creativity, innovation, and passion know no boundaries. Whether you're a science enthusiast, music lover, or just someone who appreciates incredible human stories, this episode will inspire you to look beyond the surface and celebrate the unsung heroes who have shaped our world.

This episode of The Other Side of the Bell, featuring trumpet performer, composer and sound designer Tim Larkin, is brought to you by Bob Reeves Brass. This episode also appears as a video episode on our YouTube channel, you can find it here: "Tim Larkin trumpet interview"   About Tim Larkin: Tim Larkin is a composer, trumpet player, and sound designer whose work spans decades across the gaming, jazz, and film industries. His credits include Portal, Dota 2, Team Fortress 2, and HBO's The Rat Pack, with past live performances alongside legends like Ella Fitzgerald, Sheila E., and Huey Lewis. Tim won an Academy Award creating sound design for Best Animated Short at the 75th Academy Awards for his work on The ChubbChubbs! Setting Standards is his long-awaited debut jazz album, and was released on August 1, 2025 on all major platforms. The album is a curated collection of reimagined classics and one original composition that captures the emotional breadth, musical depth, and cinematic storytelling that have defined Larkin's career across jazz, film, and video games. Setting Standards includes interpretations of songs by Bobby Caldwell, David Foster, Jimmy Webb, and more anchored by his own original composition, “Gumshoes.” “This album isn't about chasing trends,” says Larkin. “It's about honoring the songs that stuck with me and reimagining them in a way that feels honest keeping the soul intact but letting them breathe in a new space.” Setting Standards blends cinematic jazz, soulful arrangements, and live instrumentation into a cohesive listening experience that's both nostalgic and forward thinking. With contributions from longtime collaborators including John Paris (Earth, Wind & Fire) and renowned arrangers Maurizio Metalli, Lennie Moore and Joris Hoogsteder, the album is a modern take on the classic jazz experience.   Episode Links: Tim Larkin profile on IMDB Setting Standards streaming links Video of Tim conducting the orchestra at the Dota 2 International Championships in 2023, at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle The Dota 2 2025 International Grand Championships Opening Ceremony   Upcoming Events: Virtuosity Musical Instruments Boston, October 17 & 18 Greg Black Mouthpieces, November 7 & 8 North Carolina Music Educators Association Conference, November 9 & 10   Podcast Credits: “A Room with a View“ - composed and performed by Howie Shear Podcast Host - John Snell Cover Photo Credit - Tim Larkin Audio Engineer - Ted Cragg  

Roger Armstrong co-founded the legendary Rock On record shop and was running the Chiswick label long before the punk rock explosion of independents, a believer that you could license rare R&B, soul and rockabilly classics while cutting new records with rising stars (Shane MacGowan, Kirsty MacColl and Joe Strummer among them). He then co-founded Ace Records and talks to us here about the thrill of trawling through American label vaults, locating vintage tracks and finding them a whole new audience. Along with … … seeing Ella Fitzgerald and the Beatles in Belfast in the early ‘60s ... inventing a new Irish rock circuit and turning showbands into soul bands … how American Graffiti, Gaz's Rockin' Blues and the mod revival all chimed with Ace Records' re-issues … promoting ‘Tin' Lizzy (“that's what it sounded like on the phone”) and being immortalised in one of their lyrics (“I get my records at the Rock On stall”) … Joe Strummer in the 101-ers – “sensational, full-tilt, as if playing a stadium” … releasing Dylan's Theme-Time Radio Hour box-sets and the size of his record collection … finding a Little Richard demo and making an Elvis Presley speech album a money-spinner … being a pioneer tape rat and crate-digger and Ace Records quality control – “Stack ‘em low, sell ‘em high!” … “think of the strapline, then choose the tracks”: making compilations with Jon Savage, Bob Stanley, Bobby Gillespie and Paul Weller … plus reflections on John Martyn, Carol Grimes, Brinsley Schwarz, Rocky Sharpe, Irma Thomas, Arthur Alexander and the Count Bishops (“like the Stones at 78”).

"I've been an ardent fan of the big bands all my life. As a child growing up in New Jersey, I set my radio dial to WNEW, where "Make Believe Ballroom" featured a constant stream of recordings by big bands and their vocalists. Swing music went into hibernation for a while, as vocalists like Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Rosemary Clooney, and Perry Como stole the spotlight away. Determined to keep the old sound alive, I accumulated a collection of over 9,000 recordings. With such a rich resource at my fingertips, it was a natural next step to inaugurate a weekly radio program, which went on the air in 1983 and is now carried by over 40 National Public Radio stations."

We're joined by Ira's biographer, Michael Owen, for a 'swonderful overview of his fascinating career. Performances by Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Kelli O'Hara, Fred Astaire and many more.

Having worked with flowers since she was in high school, she saw a dead nettle growing out of the concrete during a winter walk in Nashville.Fascinated by its fierce and strong yet soft qualities, along with realizing that the name “dead nettle” sounds almost like “death metal,” Wall has since embraced Dead Nettle as her stage name.Paul Dyer has lived in and around the Front Range for 35 years, first falling in love with Colorado on a family vacation at 14 years old. Staying in a motel next to a creek, he loved the sound of the flowing water, and as with many other residents, the mountains and diverse landscape were a major drawing point.Music has been a long-time hobby for Paul. He grew up surrounded by music, his dad singing and playing music from artists such as Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, and Nat King Cole.

In 1956, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong released “Ella and Louis” — the first of three classic albums the two jazz greats would record together. Now, a Canadian production is paying tribute to these records and these artists with a new stage show called “Ella and Louis,” which is running at this season's Shaw Festival. The award-winning Toronto singer and actor Alana Bridgewater co-created the show and also plays Fitzgerald. She joins guest host Gill Deacon to talk about the legacy of these albums and what it's like to step into the shoes of a music legend.

Bailarines extraordinarios como Astaire, Ginger Rogers y otros aún perviven en los "bailes de salón” y dentro del selecto grupo de admiradores de la excelencia. Sinatra o Ella Fitzgerald, sus vocalistas excelsos, Bublé o Robbie Williams, sus continuadores y “Llévame a la Luna” más que una canción, un himno. ¡¡Swing!!

Song: Don't Give Up Music by: Becky Reardon   Notes: Thinking about tough times, Becky Reardon says, "The worst thing we can do is go silent." Here's a song to help with that -- a song about both grit and kindness; how a little flex can be the strongest response. She says, “Of all times when we need to get together and sing… this is the time to keep it going.” We talk about her love of the high desert, trees, community... how church and family singing embedded love of harmonies. How Naomi Shihab Nye reminded her, "When times are hard, do something satisfying." Plus a sticky cocklebur song! It's a good conversation to help return you to yourself, your power to bring more decency and compassion into the world.   Songwriter Info: Becky Reardon's voice is familiar to the millions of people who hear her sing on the Charlie Brown/Peanuts TV specials. She is a composer whose songs and rounds are widely sung by community and university choirs, song circles, and singing classes. Sometimes jazzy and fun-loving, sometimes trance-inducing and deeply spiritual, her music always conveys her passion for the natural world and the cycles of life.    Sharing Info: The song is free to share in oral tradition groups, but please contact Becky for recording and/or performing permission.   Song Learning Time Stamps: Start time of teaching: 00:05:42 The Moon instructional song: 00:42:11 The Sticky Cocklebur: 00:43:19 Start time of reprise: 00:56:19   Links: Becky's website: www.beckyreardonmusic.com  Alone from “Someday You'll Find Her, Charlie Brown”: https://youtu.be/5VpmohI_ZZQ?feature=shared  Farther Along from “Why, Charlie Brown, Why”: https://youtu.be/6SY1MNEXHvY?feature=shared Video of workshop improv singing: https://youtube.com/shorts/i2Z2Ltqy6dA Rhiannon: https://rhiannonmusic.com/ The Lama Foundation: https://www.lamafoundation.org/  Winter Solstice Song (Deep down in the belly of the night): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbV-DaVxzE8  Becky Graber: https://beckygraber.com/ – and her conversation episode on ABS: https://www.abreathofsong.com/episodes--show-notes/165-heaven-above-earth-below-with-guest-becky-graber#/  Sue Coffee: https://www.resonancechorus.org/artistic-director.html Elise Witt https://elisewitt.com/web/about-elise-witt/ Retreat with Elise and Becky on Ossabaw Island:: https://elisewitt.com/web/calendar/ossabaw-island-retreat-2026/ The Moon instructional song: https://beckyreardonmusic.com/product/where-is-the-moon/ The Sticky Cocklebur: https://beckyreardonmusic.com/product/the-sticky-cocklebur/ Becky's Bandcamp page - to come!

Jahrgang 1924, Jazzmusiker & Profigitarrist (verstorben am 28. Januar 2018) Mit 13 entdeckt der Berliner Heinz Jakob "Coco" Schumann den Jazz für sich, kurz darauf schwappt die Swingwelle ins Land, ausgerechnet als der Krieg schon in vollem Gange und Swing Tanzen streng verboten war. Mit 16 spielt er das erstmal öffentlich. Ein riskantes Unterfangen. Er spielt nachts heimlich in den Clubs mit Bully Buhlan und Helmut Zacharias um die Wette. 1943 wird er denunziert und kommt in Gefangenschaft. Deportation nach Theresienstadt, dann nach Auschwitz und nach Dachau. Coco Schumann musiziert selbst in den Lagern, wird so zum "Ghetto-Swinger" und rettet sich so das Leben. 1945 kehrt er nach Berlin zurück, heiratet und bespielt mit seiner Jazzgitarre und neuer Band sämtliche Tanzschuppen rund um den Kurfürstendamm. Trotzdem wandert er 4 Jahre nach Ausstralien aus. Endgültig zurück im Wirtschaftswunder Berlin, jammt er mit Ella Fitzgerald, Dizzy Gillespie und Louis Armstrong. Kurz - er wurde der deutsche Grandmaster of Swing. 40 Jahre hat Coco Schumann über seine Erlebnisse während des Nationalsozialmus geschwiegen. In seinen Memoiren "Der Ghetto Swinger - erzählt der 80jährige Jazzmusiker, wie er Auschwitz und seine Peiniger überlebte und gab uns in der Hörbar ein paar Einblicke in sein spannendes Leben. Coco Schumann wurde 93 Jahre alt.

When the jazz singer Cécile McLorin Salvant was profiled in The New Yorker, Wynton Marsalis described her as the kind of talent who comes along only “once in a generation or two.” Salvant's work is rooted in jazz—in the tradition of Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan and Abbey Lincoln—and she has won three Grammy Awards for Best Jazz Vocal Album. But her interests and her repertoire reach across eras and continents. She studied Baroque music and jazz at conservatory, and performs songs in French, Occitan, and Haitian Kreyòl. “I think I have the spirit of a kind of a radio d.j. slash curator,” she tells David Remnick. “It's almost like making a mixtape for someone and only putting deep cuts.” And even when singing the standards, she aims “to find the gems that haven't been sung and sung and sung over and over again.” During a summer tour, she visited the studio at WNYC to perform “Don't Rain on My Parade,” made famous by Barbra Streisand; “Can She Excuse My Wrongs,” by John Dowland, the English composer of the Elizabethan era; and “Moon Song,” an original from Salvant's album “Ghost Song.”This segment originally aired on May 31, 2024.
